Default i will not sleep tonight - Slugs in psycho fashion - HELP!

yes, to say i have a prob with slugs is an understatement.
i live in social housing, with a yard out back, i beautified it and built up the raised bed into a veritable garden and along with potted plants, water barrel and grass down it seems to have caused a dreadful infestation this year. checked just now a dozen saucers of beer, they are absolutely everywhere, even crawling over each other. a crack in gutter probably let far too much water in during winter and only one tiny outlet in the corner of solid concrete.
the yard was all concrete, never a garden, run off to a drain at the end but none off the raised bed - help, i am not a good sleeper best of times. neighbour has same prob and put beer down but its driven him to sup the beer too - he's an alcoholic and i will be too if this goes on.
