EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the delicate beauty of a garden snail perched on the rim of a jar filled with beer. The snail, identified as Helix aspersa, is drawn to the yeast in the alcoholic drink, making it an organic alternative for pest control against snails and slugs. The image showcases nature's intricate details, highlighting the single eye and stalked eyestalks of this mollusc. Its slow climb up the jar's surface reveals its biology and zoological characteristics. With its mesmerizing gaze fixed upon us, we are reminded of the diversity found within our own gardens. Snails and slugs can often wreak havoc on plants, but this innovative method offers a humane solution without resorting to harmful chemicals or commercial products. By using beer traps like these, gardeners can effectively attract and trap these pests while maintaining an eco-friendly approach. Photographer Ian Gowland has masterfully captured this moment in time, showcasing both scientific curiosity and artistic finesse. Through his lens, we gain insight into how even seemingly insignificant creatures play vital roles in our ecosystem. Whether you're fascinated by nature's wonders or seeking sustainable alternatives for pest control in your garden, this print serves as a reminder that sometimes simplicity holds powerful solutions – all within reach from Mother Nature herself.
