Gumballs??? they repel slugs??? Do you have to chew them first??? I never heard of this one before...
Don't forget too, there is also the copper barrier you can purchase. It is supposed to give the slugs a little shock. It comes as a 1" tape that I put on the outside of a raised bed, it kept them out for several years. It also comes on a 3" moulding type material to put around larger areas. A friend used the 3" type...on a bed next to her house. The slugs climbed up the stucco of the wall & got into the bed! They are clever little fellows!!

I have heard this works well too...
