I use diatomaceous earth (available where gardening and swimming pool
products are sold). I sprinkle a small amount around the base of newly
planted seedlings, adding more as time passes if the leaves look like
the slugs have munched.

Also, keep slug infested areas clean of fallen leaves and other plant
debris.
