3. Outdoor Conditions May Be Pushing Them In
Heavy rain, flooding, or extreme humidity outside often forces slugs to seek shelter indoors. If your yard or garden holds too much water, slugs may migrate toward your house.
Things to check outside:
Overwatered plants near walls
Mulch piled against the foundation
Dense vegetation touching the house
Poor drainage around the home
What to do: Improve drainage, move mulch away from walls, and trim plants so they don’t touch the structure.
4. Food Sources Are Attracting Them
Slugs feed on organic material. Even small crumbs, pet food, or decomposing plant matter can attract them.
