Be careful when tapping them, because:
Inside every snail shell is a tiny disco ball
Disco isn’t dead, instead, it turns out that it just got small
They’ve got the boogie oogie all up in their buggy bodies
These super freaks of nature love to seek out funky hobbies
This was amazing
Most common “garden snails” in north America are actually invasive and you absolutley should murder them ruthlessly to keep your garden alive
Wildlife balance? I wouldn’t call eating everything I have planted in my garden wildlife balance. Luckily a hedgehog moved in into my garden 2 years ago, he makes sure there’s a balance in my garden again. But the snails are suffering, that’s for sure.
Hedgehog is Doomslayer of snails?
How do snails “maintain the wildlife balance in our gardens”?
Birds eat the snails. Bird-eating Spiders eat the birds. Phorusrachids eat the bird-eating spiders.
This description of the food web seems a little dated. I haven’t seen a bird-eating spider in years.
Really? There’s one leading the DHS right now.
French people eat the snails. Acromantulas eat the French people.
I see they like serious gourmet shit.
Well, shit, nature is healing.
Reminds me of that kid who ate a snail on a date and had brain damage and died in pain years later.
Fucking brutal.
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
Dude is committing snail genocide via dog walking
snail genocide
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.
two or three each summer… I’m a snailocidal maniac it’s true
Honestly, I don’t think I’ve even seen a snail in years. I mean I’m no gardener, and don’t necessarily go out of my way to look for little critters, but I live on the US Gulf Coast, and make a point to look out for little helpful harmless critters, so you’d figure I should see more than one a year…

Nice try immortal snail
I call BS on this snail tapping thing. I’ve seen it in meme form like this over and over again, but any time I’ve tried it (very snaily garden) it’s never actually helped in any way.
Here for the obligatory “I’d tap that” quip.
Works a treat for aquarium snails too. A gentle tappy tap tap and they just retract and fall off things.
Why did the snail cross the road?
Not clear. Let it cross the road first.
