hi there, my name is darren and i am growing my first ever garden this year. while tending it today i noticed that the leaves of my bush beans are being chewed away by some kind of critters who hide by day but who i think are slugs or snails by the slimy trails they leave. because i've just had to completely scrap a mystery plant that volunteered itself in my garden due to aphids, i was wondering, should i do something about this? is it just a little harmless munching that i can afford to allow or is there some kind of non-toxic way i should be ushering the insects along to a different part of the yard? (i've got lots of weedy areas where i'm not growing which i'd be glad to share.) i stumbled upon your very helpful planting guide just now and would be very glad of your opinion on my beans since they were born of seeds saved from mom's garden and i love them so very much. thanking you kindly, dThumb of 2013-07-19/visitor/5871ba
