They have mid-dark brown slimy tops and the slugs seem to love them.
Are they bad for my garden and if so how do I get rid of (lots of) them (from everywhere)?

I have two cats, they both bring things into the house then kill them.

I have tried a collar with a bell - they get caught in things and dont come home for days.

They kill birds, rabbits, rats, woodpeckers, sand lizards, mice, magpies.

I am doing a science fair project on how the type of mulch affects plant growth. What topics should I research, other than mulch? I don't know very much about plants, so I don't know what about plants I should research. Please help.

I don't have any mop and glo. Is there something else I could mix with water to mop my floors with? Would dishwashing detergent work? I hope this doesn't seem like a silly question, I'm really curious. I just moved into a new apartment. Thanks in advance!
