Slug information please

[greenishfing]

Does anyone know if the slugs that attack strawberries, the little black ones, are the same sort that attack potatoes.

Also how do they move around? On the surface or underground?

I'm waging war on them at the moment and I want as much info as possible please,

Not quite answering the question, but all shapes and sizes of slugs eat my straws.

All the information you could wish for about slugs - including the fact that "In favourable circumstances they can live for 6 years" Bad Slugs: Identify Slugs that Cause Most Garden Damage ~ Slug Off

From that site:

So remember the old saying:
If it’s black, put it back.
If it’s grey, keep it at bay.

huh?

My rule of thumb is, if it's a slug, stamp on it.
