I hate the damned things! I've just spent half an hour this morning killing several dozen.
It's not just that they eat my plants, but I also have to prevent them fron getting into the house. A couple of years ago I was infested with slugs; every morning I would discover up to half a dozen of the things in my kitchen...not just on the floor; but in the sink, on the working surfaces and even climbing up cupboards. Of course their slime trails were everywhere and although I did my best to clean them up, over a period of several months I still inadvertently ingested some of the bacteria or poisons present in the slime and became quite ill.
Salt seems to do the trick though in killing them and keeping them at a safe distance. At the time I liberally spread it on the floor and all over the surfaces and spent at least thirty minutes every day on the front line in the garden exterminating them.
The battle is continuing....no surrender!!!
