They don't actually die from the salt. The salt dehydrates them so they shrival up and may look dead, but after a while, the slimy mucus pushes the salt back out, and they slug off somewhere else.

Salt applied to the slug's body is usually fatal, as it absorbs much of the moisture in the slug.

Pulls the moisture/water out of their tiny little bodies. Water flows in the direction of greater to lesser so the salt is like a magnet to the water.

I understand that salt literally causes them to dry out.

salt sucks up moisture and slugs are made up of mostly moisture.

it sucks out the moisture in their bodies and causes them to dehydrate at a rapid pace.
