When salt is poured on slugs, it causes a process called osmosis, where water is drawn out of their bodies. The high concentration of salt outside the slug creates an imbalance, leading to dehydration. As moisture leaves their cells, the slug suffers from severe fluid loss, ultimately leading to its death. This effect is particularly lethal for soft-bodied organisms like slugs, which rely heavily on moisture to maintain their bodily functions.
