What It Really Means When a Slug Enters Your Home

From environmental health to cutting-edge science and skincare, slugs play some surprisingly valuable roles.
Nature’s Unsung Recycler

This natural composting makes the earth more fertile and supports plant growth—something gardeners may want to appreciate rather than curse.
