I had a severe problem a few years ago...they were destroying all my young bean plants. It finally sunk in that it was likely slugs, so I went out around dusk and checked...sure enough there were numerous slugs coming from the tall grass to my garden. Back inside I grabbed the salt shaker and out I went getting over twenty that night. The next night I took a flashlight and went out just before dusk...after about 30 minutes I had killed over 100 with salt. I kept doing this for about 10 days, every evening. When I finally figured I had cured the slug problem I had killed over 1200. It was a bit of a chore, but that was the end of the slug problem.
