try placing some baits away from target plants to attract slugs away
Do you have beer drinking neighbours? ask them for their slops - snails 
seem to like stale beer better than fresh from the can

They're mostly active at night & look for dark moist places to hide 
during the day - I place small bits of wood on mulch between plants and 
collect snails/slugs hiding there in the morning - throw to chickens if 
you have them or drop into container and pour boiling water over to kill 
and into the compost.
