Linda: Your local hardware or garden shop should stock beer traps with small openings that only slugs and smaller critters can enter.

How do I keep the feral cat and the juvenile skunk that lives under my house with his new teenage room mate possum from drinking the beer?

If you want to kill the slugs, instead of temporarily relocating them, try a dish of beer, fresh or stale, set in the ground so it's easy for them to
crawl in and drown.  They follow the scent from quite a distance.  What
you don't need you can always drink.
