Hello again
Some critters which eat slugs include frogs, salamanders, snakes, ducks and
jays. Unfortunately the ducks and jays also love seedlings. I know that
there are also insects which eat them- some predatory beetles, but I do not
know the names or, more importantly if they are otherwise beneficial in the
garden.
