Sometimes they do not need to control them because the number of them stay down lower than farms that use fertilisers (and pesticides, incectisides ect) , this happens because the pests have less chance of surviving in non-organic farms so they breed more,and can become immune to the pesticide so they actually have more bugs. A way of stopping slugs is to put cracked eggshell around the object that you don't want harmed, this is a humane way to stop slugs because it deters them, rather than killing them.
