zandor, i have a question for you, was going to email you, but can find no email address!
the question is , will hydrogen peroxide in my resevoir sollution kill slugs, and their eggs??
i have had this problem for a couple of crops now, i thought i had iradicated them from the grow room by bleeching all tha arlita last time, cleaned and sterilised all pots and equipment, even started a thourough bleaching campaign, disenfectant filled trays and shoes only for use in the grow room! all seemed well until last week! again i found problems with the PH in the tanks falling in grow! a sure sign of the little acid basterds! sure enough on a full flood test i started to find almost microscopic slugs!cant be many days old! the largest i ever found has been 1 cm, these are aeasy to remove but seem to be able to leave eggs even at that early stage of development, the only way the re-infestation could have occoured is threw the two systems being cleaned at different times, or maybe a plant transfered from the affected area, the regime of cleanliness is second to none! I have an entrance chamber to the room, as it enters from out side, where we change footwear, and stand on disenfectant soaked mats. the room is a basement in an area where slugs are common hence the problems, however living within the arlita is a real problem. i dont have to tell you im aware of the root damage they are doing to the plants, let alone the excesive amount of PH plus iam using in the tanks to rectify PH every two floods minimum,thats like 6 ml ph plus every day, in a 100 litre tank! water quality is going down every day! so although i had posted a link on this several mths back, i didnt have the advantage of your feed back,
can i rid myself or new eggs at least with the hydrogen peroxide! and at what ratio should it be used.
thank you,
