Default slug pellets?

--
I have to confess we use them but I do worry what ill effects they have
on birds & mammals that might eat the dying slugs.

I too am concerned. However I've not come across an economic alternative.
Nematodes are very expensive and the moisture absorbing slug deterrent type
materials sound a lot of hassle to put around every plant - and of dubious
effectiveness.
