Someone suggested I put strong smelling herbs at the base of my plants to ward off the slug/snail attack. How should I hold them in place? We get wind and driving rain. The vegetable garden has a layer of cedar bark chips. This attachment has to extend all the way from the top of the 3 inch bark layer into a secure foothold down in the dirt around the collards.

Hi Save your eggshells and wash them and let them dry out. Spread them around your plants The slugs and snails will not go over them.
Now, why didn't I think of that?
we put cheap beer in a shallow plastic container. The slugs love beer, climb in and cannot get out. You just have to empty them out every couple of days.
Put salt ever time the wind or rain stop. After it is gone put salt again.
