Default Nemaslug - used it?

I am trying out nematodes (sp?) for the first time this year. They are tiny parasites that live on slugs, and only slugs. As the slugs simply shrugged and s******ed at my slug pellets last year, and I'm worried about the dog/baby eating them (pellets not slugs, slugs are fine), I thought I'd give it a go. It's not cheap, so I hope it works, I've already spotted a couple of tiny slugs in the garden. Yuck. I hate their munching slimy meanness.

Do you use them? How did it work out for you?

I'll update with what happens during the spring growing season, which is when slugs are the worst problem.
