I was making pesto with all my basil and found some eenie weenie little slugs on some of the leaves. Should I:

gift them to your French neighbor, as a value-added proposition (« I shelled them for you! Allez voiture esse! »)

dip all the collected leaves and dip them in warmed salt water for some time...Sieve them out and wash.under a tap.... while you warm up the water to wash with.. The infestation should wash away leaving the basil ready to be added to food.

Shoot them. The basil will be slug free and chopped!

Soak them in a sink full of water for about 20 minutes and they will drown and fall to the bottom.

Wash them 😯 don't eat the squishies 🙈

Rinse the leaves in a water-lemon juice mix

Bugs of all kinds are naturally present on all food that isn’t industrially produced. Wash and make your food

I have no idea if they are edible, unpleasant or actually toxic!
