People also say copper.
I'm not that convinced, but if you have enough spare copper wire you could try wrapping it around the raise bed.

Copper rings around the base of plants, pressed into the earth so there are no gaps underneath, work brilliantly.
However if you're going to go to the effort of wrapping wire all around the circumference of a raised bed, why not add a 9v battery and go nuclear?

What's the best way to repel slugs from a veg patch (on a raised bed)? Would prefer to avoid non-organic deterrents as we will be eating the veg! A LOT of slugs come out when it rains so need something stronger than eggshells or coffee grounds.
