SLUGS and ants HELP FAST

i just checked on my plants for the first time in 2 weeks they looked healthy but there was leaf damage i noticed a couple black ants crawling on my leaves and in the soil was this big slug
how do i keep them away without hurting my plants

slug bait and ant traps work. you can get ant traps at the grocery store and snail/slug bait at any place with a garden isle.

thanks FDD

ants harm the plant? how and why?

they use there mandables to cut the leaves off cuz there dicks idk why they do it all i know is it was them that did it and i told them to stop and they didnt so now i got to kill them
