Wanted decollate snails.
I've tried to figure where to put this......
I need some snails. Even though the brown garden snail is in Fl, the decollate snail isn't. Is there anyone in California with a deviant nature? Specifically someone in Fresno, Imperial, Kern, Los Angeles, Madera, Orange, Riverside, Santa Barbara, San Bernardino, San Diego, Ventura, or Tulare counties. I've mounted a successful frontal assault with BB gun and flashlight and implemented a bait/crush bait/poison plan. This has reduced the population on my property by at least 5,000 many being the large breeding snails. 5,000 snails? REALLY? I threw some papaya leaves in a hole and days later discovered hundreds, literally hundreds of snails eating them. Since then I have papaya piles all over have been crushing 200+ per day. Metaldehyde baits are pricey and dangerous. The BB gun gets hard as the snails get around 1/4 inch or smaller. I could apply carbamates to the entire property through irrigation, but this is expensive and probably illegal. I have got to get out in front of them. Anyone? P.S. don't say beer, copper, DE, shoes, salt, birds, leave them alone, snails are people too, etc

Re: Wanted decollate snails.
They can be killed with caffeine - have you tried spreading coffee grounds? Actually, used grounds may be too weak; the fresh stuff may work.
