Habitat

At present almost exclusively restricted to cultivated areas, usually in open habitats, in meadows, near roadsides, in ruins, gardens and parks, not inside forests.
Deroceras reticulatum is a serious pest of field crops and garden cultivations.

In North and central European lowlands probably the most widely distributed slug. Introduced as a synanthrope to many regions, North America, Peru, Tasmania, New Zealand, central Asia.
