Garden Master
Since we purchased our home here in the PNW, we had slugs, pill bugs, and ear wigs comming out of our ears. 
As you know, I brought in TONS of boulders, then planted ground covers, shrubs, and small type trees. This created the perfect environment for snakes to set up residentce. This past spring I saw several baby garter snakes. This morning, just walking through my garden with a cup of coffee in my hand I spoted 6 garder snakes ( 2 sub species ) 12 - 16 inches long, fat as could be and my slug and bug population has droped to next to nothing. 
Terminix has been sending out flyers almost every other week but now I will not be calling them any time soon.
