If your house is older and has cool and/or dark spots they can hide in, they will like it. Slugs have an excellent sense of smell and they will come searching for food...it doesn't even have to be messy, if there is food around (as in a kitchen) they will come. Remember they have no bones, so they can fit darn near anywhere.
It's not a sign of anything in particular, but you may want to consider sealing gaps around pipes, doors, lights, and so on - anywhere they can get in.

There were at least three clogging a HVAC drain the other day. I had to use a good amount of pressure to blow them out of the pipe. Their little bodies were splatted on the brick of the house right next door.
