Best Management Practices

Monitor using cover boards

Description

EBGS:  Monitor by using cover boards.  Use an easy-to-handle sized piece of wood and elevate it one inch off the ground.  Dispose of snails by crushing them (29).  Boards can also be made of cardboard; it is important the boards material can remain moist.

Applicable Pests
  • European brown garden snail (EBGS)
