Please do not kill slugs using salt. This is a terrible way to die! The thick goo you see on the slug after salt is put on the body is actually the fluid or blood of a slug that rushes to the skin's surface to dilute the salt. Dehydration is a nasty way to go. Simply remove the slug from your garden and place it back in a nearby forest where it can continue its important role as a forest floor decomposer.
salt to a slug is like acid to a human. Do you really have that much time on your hands stop torturing living beings. How would you like for some big hand comes down and burns you with acid for their enjoyment?
