Yes, it's cruel. However, I did it once when I was really little.

That's so mean. I loved slugs when I was a little kid, and I used to keep them outside in my crayon box as pets. They (obviously) always escaped, though.

Yes, they're ugly and gross but they're still living creatures.

I did it all the time as a kid - now I'm like 'wait, that was mean!' My mom would make it like a game, we'd go out and kill them all. But on the other hand, they're basically just big bugs aren't they? I don't usually feel bad for killing bugs.

Even if they're ugly and disgusting, it's really cruel to do that to a living creature.

Never heard of that but no I wouldn't do that to the poor fellers not their fault they evolved somehow strangely not needing a shell like their snail relative.

If you want to get rid of slugs use beer. They love it, but it will kill them.

No. I HATE those disgusting things. It they're outside, fine, but if they're in my house, salt baths for all of them.

I wouldn't do that to a slug, personally.

I did it all the time, until I realized I was wasting salt.

This question is badly worded... I answered yes... but that doesn't mean I disapprove.
