Slugs are basically water balloons with a face. They need moisture to move, so your first job is to dry everything out. Wipe down your counters every night before bed like you’re prepping for an inspection.
Fix that tiny drip under the sink. Use a squeegee on your windowsill after washing dishes. If the kitchen feels less like a rainforest, slugs will feel less like staying for breakfast.
It’s not about being a neat freak—it’s about making your home less inviting. Slugs are lazy guests; they won’t check in if the pool is empty.

The Great Salt Debate (And Why It’s Kinda Mean)
You’ve heard the trick: sprinkle salt on a slug, and it shrivels up like a sad, salty raisin. Yes, it works, but it’s also a horrible, painful way for the slug to go.
I’m not here to judge anyone’s pest control. But if you have kids or a soft heart, you might want a method that doesn’t involve liquidating a tiny animal in front of your coffee mug.
Plus, salt can damage your countertops or floors. It’s fine for a sidewalk, but not great for your granite.
