Slugs obtain their energy primarily through a diet of organic matter, including decaying plant material, fruits, and vegetables. They are detritivores, meaning they feed on decomposing matter, which provides them with the necessary nutrients. Slugs use a specialized structure called a radula to rasp food particles off surfaces. The digestion of this organic material allows them to convert it into energy for their metabolic needs.
Collective nouns for slugs are a slime of slugs, a phlegm of slugs, or a cornucopia of slugs.

Not all slugs die after giving birth, but some species do exhibit this behavior. In certain cases, female slugs may invest so much energy into reproduction that they become weakened or die shortly after laying eggs. However, many slugs can survive and reproduce multiple times throughout their lives. The survival rates and reproductive strategies can vary significantly among different slug species.
