I'm not really bothered with the slugs.. it was partly my fault for leaving the seedlings on the path, rather than a bit higher up.

I don't use slugicides because they have a disasterous effect on the cats - cats eat the pellets; no problem. Cats eat the slugs; no problem. Cats eat the slugs that have eaten the pellets - BIG problem... the resulting chemical reaction affects the cats' kidneys, as does eating a slug that died of alcohol poisoning!
