The Slice

Spokane slugs dissed

"Having lived in Southwest Washington for 23 years, these slugs are nothing," wrote Mary S. Nelson, who works for the American Red Cross Inland Northwest Chapter.

She remembers one slug-eradication tactic that was particularly effective. "Ducks," she said. "They love slugs."

Of course, then you had to clean up the ducks. And it's worth remembering that ducks create their own messes.

"Sometimes you just can't win," said Nelson.
