Here is a link to info on dealing with slugs.  http://www.extension.umn.edu/garden/insects/find/slugs/.   I would go ahead and trim the dead branches out of your apple tree. It could be damage from the cold winter. Here is a link to apple problems that you can look at and compare the damage you have to determine if it is possibly something other than the cold winter.  http://www.extension.umn.edu/garden/diagnose/plant/fruit/apple/
