Can't identify that mould? Got a great tip for keeping slugs at bay? Suggestions for organic weed control? Post them here...

I've kept finding damage to my peaches and thought it was slugs or snails, but for a change they are innocent, it is woodlice. I've picked some ripe ones today and nearly every one has a small depression with a woodlouse in it. They still tasted delicious after a good wash.

Are there any good ways to prevent this without spraying? Like the plant pot of straw on a cane to catch earwigs.
