Add one more reason to drink beer, especially if you’re a nature lover. According to the e-mail I got from Fustigato — I believe from Italy — millions of slugs are killed each year using beer. To save the slugs, they’re suggesting you have a beer, and in fact all the beer in the world. I think the students and alumni of the University of Santa Cruz will get behind this campaign. So remember, you’re not just quenching your thirst when you drink a beer, you’re also saving a slug.
Below is the video.
As a UCSC alum, brewer, beer drinker, and gardener, I have no problem drinking beer and whacking garden-munching slugs. That said, I use sluggo ™ for my slug murdering needs and drink the beer.
A mission is a mission! I will have a beer to save a horrible slug!
