We had a camomile lawn many years ago. The
fragrance was amazing but sadly the lawn only survived
a couple of weeks because smell spread to every
slug within a 5 mile radius.

We had a very large resident toad and frogs in the
garden & I often went out after dark to remove
as many slugs as I could find. This wasn't difficult
as there were so many it was hard not to tread on
them.

I hope you have more success.
