To catch slugs, just use a pie-pan full of beer, and out of wood or stones, build a little ramp up to the lip of the pan from the outside. When this is placed on the ground, the slugs will come runnin! (or slithering)

On a more serious note, could you add more details to your question? Like, what type of application, how big, materials, etc? The more information you can provide, the better. I am not too well versed in the slug-catching field, but I don't think there is enough information in your initial query for anyone to provide you with a good answer.

Good luck

your purpose and application are not clear.. "Slug" has more than one meaning. could be escargot, could be bullets.. big difference.

more data required.
