Giant African Snail

[pugboy]

fowl means chickens, ducks, guinea birds, the wild bird they call krao/limpkin

in maraval and santa cruz manicou eating a lot of them and have them under control somewhat

only real option is natural predation
fowl and manicou

I thought they said a Fox is a good predator? you saying Fowl will kill out all?

[pugboy]

anybody know what is the attractant they use in the bait ?
it really attracts snails and slugs from a distance

Was the latest on the snail scenes?
What successes yall having with spray on chemicals? The bait too risky around dogs so I wanna try the spray chemicals if any working

Will the bait attract cats also? 2 kills with one poison, snail and them dam stray cats.

Well ah seeing these pest on the boarder of home first time ever....

These things are a MAJOR problem get the blue poison for snail ASAP, flame thrower anything you can get your hands on to kill them permanently, don't crush them because the eggs and little ones will spread.

They spread and multiply incredibly fast and once it happens there is noway to get rid of them from your area.

I adopted a small to medium size Caiman I found in my yard during the flood, I say well he will deal with these snails but he was useless he didn't eat any of the snails, he just loafed around sleeping all day and terrorized my mother instead, ended up dumping him in a nearby abandoned pond that has some fishes.

Bro wat,????

The chives thing is interesting. I’m snail free more or less for over a year and a half now. Always vigilant tho because the general area is infested.

Mix ratios?

Recommended ratio is 1 tsp per gallon of water,I using it 4 tsp per gallon. I using small spray bottles and going trigger happy.
I am paying $25/lb by the agro shop. The copper sulfate is safe for dogs/cats /birds. Do not use around fish. It is also a very good fungicide for plants. So win/win
The snails by me don't particularly like the chives for some reason, just an observation

Boys,

Nothing not working, them fawkers coming full force. The more deading the more coming.

Trying this around the entrance where they coming from. Going to place on ground and fill with heavy salt.

Plenty rain would make it overflow and dilute the salt, but some of them will get it if they venture in. Trying to see if i could build a shelter strip to cover it.

[pugboy]

what sense it make throwing salt if yuh still have to pick them up since they does leggo the eggs when dying
best you just pick them up one time and soak in the bleach bucket

[alfa]

I guessing with enough salt the eggs will be properly salted as well upon being released

[pugboy]

well it ain’t hard to test that
collect the dead snail/eggs in a container and see if they hatch lol
