I’ve found a couple slugs in my apartment in the last few weeks. I have sprayed my apartment barrier for insects and spiders, and that stuff works well but it doesn’t keep the slugs out.
So what can I do to keep them out? most of what the stores sell are slug poison. I don’t really know if I want that, a slug getting into my apartment and then dying a few days after being poisoned doesn’t help me. Is there some spray I can spray around the perimeter to keep slugs out, or some trap I can use to catch them when they get in?
If you know where they’re oozing in from, you could lay some copper tape - apparently the copper vs their slime is electrifying and unpleasant, so they won’t cross the copper. It’s most often used on plants and tree trunks, so look for it at nurseries. You can also find copper scrubber pads at the grocery store if they’re coming through a hole. Same with the tape - they touch the copper and get a non-lethal zap.
It is a bit expensive, and if you know where the slugs are getting in, you may as well fix the holes.
