| | | What leaves slug like droppings? Recently I have noticed long black slug like droppings unto 4inch long on my lawn. We don't have a pond or water feature in our garden. Can anyone tell me what could be leaving these and do I need to take any action? |

| | | Re: What leaves slug like droppings? Hedgehog perhaps ... put out a shallow dish of water.  Hedgehogs can produce extra long droppings if they are a bit dehydrated.
If you can post a photo of the droppings, you can get a more definitive reply I'm sure.

| | | Re: What leaves slug like droppings? They could even be Wood Pigeon droppings, but without a picture it's hard to identify. I've noticed recently the same thing on my lawn, but I've seen a group of 3-4 Wood Pigeons and Squabs and I'm sure they're the culprit in my case! |

I would say hedgehog.
