I don't use slug pellets because of the birds and frogs, they eat a lot but they can't keep up.......so :o(
my lupins are out at last rather rain lashed though :o)

Egg shells, grit and copper scouring pads for me.....The Lupins got a terrible bashing here too...I cut off the worst and tied the others up....Looking ok now...:>)
