Slugs and snails
There are many species of slugs and snails in the UK, not all of which are harmful to garden plants. Slugs and snails are usually, but not exclusively herbivores and eat many types of plants as well as dead and decaying plant material, algae, fungi and lichens. There is even a carnivorous slug, the leopard slug Limax maximus, that includes other slugs in its diet!
