Slug on the cutting board!

So...rat lung and all.
Somehow our bamboo cutting board was left outside and when found had a big fat nasty slug on it.

My wife is pretty freaked out and we're wondering if it just needs to be re purposed away from food consumption, or would a simple soapy scrub take care of the issue?

Normally I'd think washing it off would take care of any issue but my wife suggested that since it was bamboo perhaps the "goo" could have sunk into the wood somehow.

I'd rather not buy a new cutting board so curious what everyone else would do...besides not leaving their cutting boards outside anymore ! : )

Why worry now? What could possibly be introduced here that could make our ecosystem pro create anything harmful to any human or the eco system itself?

Think about that now when you eat your deer jerky!
