Garden Snails.....I want them gone - April 30th, 2006 at 04:02 AM
Hello everyone,
I am fairly new to this group and do enjoy the replies I have received on other issues I had brought up in the past.
This time its snails. I need them gone.
I read about the copper strip idea, the beer and sugar water trick in a bowl, the grapefruit inverted trick, the rough soil irritant.
Is their another quick fix like salt water in a spray bottle?
I know that's brutal buy hey those little critters are doing a lot of damage plus its not like their becoming extinct.
I have a lot of lizards, birds and other animals I do like so putting snail poison down wont be a good idea within my environment.
Are there some good techniques or links maybe one of you can direct me to that can help this long time issue that all of us have gone through.
Take care, Mark
