Default Grape Vine Clear eggs

Hi,

I have been looking on the threads about clear small round eggs on my grape vine and still unsure what there are. Can you tell me if they are slug eggs and the best way to organically get rid of them.

They seem to be up very high though for slug eggs and as it is in my conservatory there are none in there that i know of.

Only guessing, but are they possibly snail eggs as I often find snails high up on my greenhouse windows!

Or slugs, the wretches climb the greenhouse glass too.

Hi

How can i get rid of them then, i am trying to make it so it is all organic, i have heard of fairy soap in hot water and spray, but not to sure this will work.

Or wipe them all off but this will take forever and i doubt i would get them all as they are so tiny.
