Is 5 inches too big or too small?

Spring time in the cascades brings out the banana slugs as this guy was transiting the window in the sunroom I broke out my ruler and he cleared 5" here, at one point for some reason he measured a full 9 inches, long n skinny.

I prefer my slugs dead, invisible or non existent.

These things are so gross. I can't count how many times I've walked out the door in the morning to experience that all too familiar squishiness of a slug under foot.

Just ewwwwwwww. The brown ones look just like dog turds.

I got some chickens the other day and I've been told they'll kill the slugs... I'm skeptical but I'd love for my back yard to be rid of these bastards.
