Beer. Seriously, put small cups or beer around where you see them. If you only have a few slugs, just pour some salt on them.

We sell a range of natural slug repellents (based on yucca extracts) that work very well. A couple of slug traps, which work exceptionally well with beer as bait!

get a slug bait that contains IRON PHOSPHATE.... it's harmless to kids, pets and wildlife...b ecomes fertilizer if not eaten by a slug.... the stuff works so good!!....
brands I know are Slug-go, Escar-go, and this one.(at Lowe's)

if you find another brand, just look at the ingredients list and see that IRON PHOSPHATE is the 'killer' ingredient.... anything else you find is toxic, in slug baits........
