Hi Norma,

Thank you for your email and interest in our bread dough work. The recipe we used for making the dough is

500 g of All Purpose Enriched Kröger brand bleached flour, 500 mL of water (deionized
for laboratory tests and bottled water for field tests), and two packets (0.25 oz) of Red Star
Active Dry Yeast.

You do not need to use these exact brands.

The dough can be applied directly on the ground and one can simply remove the slugs and snails as they arrive to feed. Alternatively you could sink a container e.g. glass jar in the soil and add the dough. With this approach I would recommend making the dough more watery (e.g. double the water) so that when the slugs/snails enter the container they will likely drown The dough works best when it is moist, if it dries out, it will not be as attractive so in dry weather we stir the dough daily and then replace it when it starts to dry.

Good luck

Rory
