1) Slugs like marigolds - very much!
2) Slugs do not like my home-made slug trap, with cider.
3) Bumble bees cannot escape from cider traps unaided (well, the one I helped out hadn't by the time I saw it)
4) Bumble bees are very good at getting rid of sticky cider by holding their legs aloft, vibrating their wings and generally cleaning themselves. They can then fly off.
The cider trap has now gone - as have the marigolds, sadly!
