Default Slug ridden new potatoes

My Charlotte potatoes were coming up fine from the 3rd week of May onwards,
but now they are totally slug infested - though the size of jacket potatoes
and a bigger crop than the Swift or Rocket I have grown previously ( I think
they may be 2nd earlies?) Any tips for next year?

I put the first few cuts of grass cuttingsa around then - is this a bad
idea?
