Garlic snails

[ALToronto]

They're actually crustaceans, so they can breathe underwater using gills.

They are crustaceans, but they can't survive underwater. Exclusively terrestrial. Their isopod relatives are aquatic, and some can grow large. I have never had a problem with them, but they are ubiquitous.

Snails really love beer!!! When snails appeared at me I put many tiny cotton pieces impregnated with beer. Every morning I collected cotton pieces with drunken snails and replaced them to fresh ones. I did that while all of snails disappeared. I can take few weeks!

Oh no, I think I may be a snail... Arghhhhhh!

If affinity for beer is an identifying feature, I am not only a snail, I am a whole bunch of em!

Limu, I'm JUST a snail.....althuogh maybe unbelivable, but this "therapy" WORKS!!!! The clue words are patience and fresh beer!!! I think snails have very good smellig-machine ( call it nose) and they can feel the smell of beer from relatively long distance. I put this "beered" cottons on every half a meter and I can tell, that in the first few days I could collect at least 8-10 drunken snails from collons/day ( my GH is about 8 m2), however I can't living snails before "beer-therapy" only eaten root tips.

You guys will know for sure if you also get a sudden urge to start eating your orchids! :rollhappy:

I am more concerned about the prospect of trying to remove beer soaked cotton from between my teeth first thing in the morning. Damn clowns have been eating cotton wool again!!!!
