Why Do Slugs Keep Coming Into My House?
If you’re finding slugs indoors, you’re not alone. Here’s what might be drawing them in:
- Moisture: Slugs love damp environments. Leaky pipes, humid basements, or puddles around your home can all attract them.
- Vegetation: Got a garden nearby? Slugs are herbivores, so your plants might be their next meal.
- Shelter: Slugs hide from the sun under clutter, logs, or stones. If your yard (or entryway) offers good hiding spots, they’ll take advantage.
- Warmth: On cool nights, slugs might sneak inside where it’s warmer—especially if they can find a cozy, humid spot to hang out.
Quick tip: Tidying up clutter around the outside of your home and sealing gaps can help keep them out.
