I had those slugs in my compost for several years and formed the impression=
that they ate decaying matter, since they left the perennial garden comple=
tely alone.
Although maybe they were just living in the compost, since they did come ou=
t at night and eat moss off the siding. Or maybe they ate only the freshest=
of the compost materials.
Comment?
