I'm thinking of getting some 'nemaslug' - they're nematodes that kill the slugs but nothing else, and it's safe for other beasties to eat said dead slugs. Has anyone tried it?

From what I've read, once you get rid of the first enthusiastic wave of slugs it's easy enough to keep on top of them. I think the nemaslug works for about 6 weeks- long enough to give seedlings a good head start at least.

But- IT! DOESN'T! WORK! ON! SNAILS!

BAH!
