Trap slugs and snails with beer
A beer trap for slugs and snails: sink it so the four entrance windows sit just above the soil, half-fill it with beer, and the lift-off roof keeps the rain from diluting it.
Prints as shown on its floor, no supports. Large holes in the walls may need supports or good bridging. Stacked parts are fused into one print.
Filament: at most about 78.4 g of PLA printed solid (roughly $1.57 at $20 per kg); normal infill uses less.
