does salt have the same effect on trolls as on slugs?

Please do not do anything drastic.
Trolls are a protected species, we run a Troll Sanctuary so will be happy to take it off your hands.
first,we need to find out if its male or female. Can you please put a remote control and box of chocolates near the bridge. We can tell which sex it is by which item it goes for. The male troll will grab the remote and go and sit in the corner, grunting every so often. The female troll will take the chocolates and munch her way through them.
If its male, can you give it a bottle of Genfiddiech, if its female, can you give it a bottle of Tia Maria. The female will need a glass.
That'll keep it in one place for a while, we'll be down later with the Trol entrapment trailer.

I don't know about salt, haven't tried that one but don't bother calling the 3 Billy Goats Gruff! I've been calling them for weeks about my troll problem. They came out to 'inspect' the troll which caused much sucking of breath and comments of oooh gonna cost ya missus this is a number 4 troll and they don't go easy. So I paid over the exorbitant deposit they asked for, and haven't seen them since!! I've left messages, sent emails, and written letters, originally they returned my phone calls but constantly said ooh sorry missus can't do a thing till the middle of next week at the earliest, but now they don't even answer my calls. Someone told me that they have been seen eating the 'greener grass on the other side' and that I'll be lucky to see them before Christmas.
Watch out for my tragic tale on the Cook Report.

No, salt is not effective on trolls. When this happens to me I usually call a leprechan to help. This has always worked. At least so far, I think, well I'm not sure, but oh well, it's worth a try, I guess, maybe.

I Australia mate we don't have trolls... but Bunyips are kinda the same.... I reckon the best way ta get rid of a bunyip is to have the mother in-law move in with him......
I tried this myself.... but as it turns out they had so much in common they hit it off and she is still there....
I found it was much easier just to get another bridge...
So it's not all bad... I may have had to fork out for another bridge but at least the mother in-law is happy and out of my hair...

I usually lead it away with a trail of smarties ending under another bridge - it will follow the trail and take up residence under the other bridge.

Why would you want to get rid of it???
Trolls are very good at limiting the amount of gruff billy goats entering your county!

No, it's riddles. My daughter said that on Dora the Explorer, a good riddle will piss off any troll. Well, maybe not those exact words, but you understand.

Tell him Michael Jackson's cumming over and he wants to play bury the troll in never never land.
