a friend of mine said that salt can get rid
of slugs


Many years ago (50+!) I had an aunt who every evening used to go out
with a pot pf salt and a tea spoon and sprinke a little on any slug she
found. Not a pleasant sight, as the slugs sort of bubbled up as they
died, but were gone by the morning.
