SLUG SALOON!!!
Buy a big bag of lyme. Can be bought at a home hardware store.
Suround the plant with this. I put it around my Hostesses.
It almost looks like I have snow around my plants in the summer.
I put the Lyme just when they start to grow. By the time they have reached their summers growth you will not see the Lyme. As it sits at the base of the plant.
This really works. I have hundreds of hostesses, all planted together in four different parts of my garden. I separate the hostesses from my other plants because of the slugs.
Slugs are a magnet to hostesses.
If you put enough Lyme down you will not have to worry about your plants.
Every year I used to put beer in a container, pick the slugs off the plants and deposit them in the beer container. Voila!!!
Finely Crushed egg shells are effective too, also good for the garden, add calcium..
Sluggo.
Try replacing the hasta plants with loriope if you have hasta. Snails don't like loriope and I think it's prettier and heartier than hasta. I went through the snail routine years ago and got tired of it; therefore, the loriope.
