the only time I ever interact with snails is when walking the dog late at night. and only by stepping on the poor bastards. they explode. guys just stay off the sidewalks, keep to the bushes ffs
Me and the (probably) other two lemmings who have ponds:
Not that I kill them on purpose. But once the little pond snails make it in and multiply like crazy, there are a ton of them in any locations where the fish don’t have access to hoover them up. Just about any of my maintenance tasks will crush some of them plus a bunch of random larvae.
I guess that’s an inevitable downside to having a hobby where I care for a flourishing little ecosystem.
