There was an interesting, if yucky, article a year or so ago in New
Scientist magazine, about an Austrailian (I think) biologost who used
diferent species of slugs in his bathroom to keep the mould and rot away.
They'd come out at night, eat all the mould in the shower and then retreat
into holes and cracks in time for his family's daily routine. I don't think
his wife was too happy though. Apparently it seemd to work quite well.

Ah I found it.
