The above soybean shots serve to illustrate just how bad slug damage has been this year in Southwestern Ontario.Slug damage has been far more pronounced because of the cooler wetter growing conditions that we've experienced.A number of replanted fields have been markedly damaged a second time.Growers are frustrated that there is no seed treatment or other economical chemical application that can help them overcome this aggravating pest.If you double click on the middle photo above you will see two pesky slugs chomping away.
