Default Slightly OT ?, Nocturnal visitor

I appear to have a nocturnal visitor, I think either a snail or slug
which is exploring the kitchen at night (I'm finding a trail on the
floor each morning).

Apart from borrowing a hedgehog, what is the best way of disposing of
it.


Blocking the way in.

I used to find them occasionally. When I came to gut and refit
the bathroom, I found a hole through the wall which would have been
for the bath runaway from an older bath whose plug must have been
in a different position (before my time there). Not visible outside
as it was pretty much level with the soil and hidden byt a line of
grass/weeds which grew against the wall.

Anyway, after mortaring it some 7 years ago, never seen another slug
indoors.
