Durian, while it's true that green leafy plants are a fav of semi slugs, I have seen them (and Giant African Snails) way up (and on) Papayas and Mulberrys here. We wash everything we eat from our yard or anybody else's, even bananas and lemons, just to be safe.
A few months ago I picked up a bunch of Kale at Maku'u Farmers Market and was stunned to see a semi slug on it. I know the growers are careful and wash everything, but they missed this guy. As much as I love fresh organic produce (and the people who grow it) I can't bring myself to buy leafy vegis there any more.
