Hmm ... salt works well on slugs. American olive oil??? Are you kiddin'? It's just got to be Spanish extra virgin oil. Nothing less will serve. You simply can't make a properly effective spell with inferior oil. Ask Baron Samedi, Erzuli Frieda, Ogoun Agoue, Ogoun Feraille, Damballa Wedo or any of them voodoo dudes, an' they'll tell you the same.

Little did the guy realise that if you ain't the Prince of Darkness then you're certainly a close relation. So ... do tell us ; is he now a toad? Or some other life form?

Xeno-x - okay, I've gotta ask
how do you wake someone up with salt? Smelling salts? Or did you nudge them with a 10 lb. bag of salt?

WhiteJedi - it is ridiculous
This type of thing can only be described as primitive nonsense. Yet you will see so many that attend a church that engages in this stuff think nothing of it.

Interesting.  Sounds similar to the mormon concept of anointed oil.  Olive oil that's been blessed by a holy person and is used during blessings.  Ridiculous when you think about it.

It has to be American olive oil! The imported stuff won't work!
