    oh my.......snails

    After watching the snail video, I thought I should go do a snail hunt. 1.9 kilos
    I was planning on giving them to my neighbour to eat but I feel quite attached now, maybe I should build a snail house. So many more out there but my back is killing me

    I grow 70% for us and 30% for the snails, then the neighbours eats them

      We generally relocate ours. Translated to lobbing them over a neighbouring fence lol

          My neighbour sticks them in an old fashioned wire birdcage to starve for a couple of days before eating them. Not for me so I relocate snails in his direction!!

            Snails have a homing instinct!!!!!!!!

                  I seem to remember vaguely that Bob Flowerdew kept a "snailery" in the same way as a wormery. It was a snail-escape-proof compost bin into which he put every snail he found, along with garden waste for them to work on.

                  He must sieve the resulting compost very thoroughly before using, to sieve out any snail eggs they may have laid in there

                  Endless wonder.
