Manual removal

Description

EBGS:  Manual removal of snails is the most sure-fire way of dealing with infestations.  They are most effective during the summer aestivation period in conjunction with chemicals (11).  Water late in the afternoon to draw out the snails, and search for them by night with a flashlight (29).

Applicable Pests
  • European brown garden snail (EBGS)
