How do I keep them from my flower gardens and yard without every other day putting slug control all over the place when I have cats

One word – salt. They HATE salt. Just sprinkle some around, and resprinkle after rain. Good luck!

Open container of beer. SOund weird but it works; they go right for it. Disposable so you can just toss it away; and cats pretty much avoid beer.

Capture them, put them all in the blender with ice, and enjoy a refreshing smoothie!

Slugs are often considered by many humans to be “disgusting” and “ugly”, and are thus disliked by almost everybody. However, few humans actually realise that slugs are in fact one of the most highly emotional creatures in the world, and are deeply hurt by the regular insults made against them. One can often find a slug leaving behind a trail of tears on the garden path, particularly when the said slug feels it is being continually stared and smirked at. These tears are said to be poisonous to anyone who touches them. However this fact cannot be proven, as no volunteers can be found who will willingly go anywhere near the trails. Hence, so as not to risk the lives of any fellow human being, it has become an accepted fact that slug tears are indeed the most dangerous substance known to mankind.
