A snail hotel..?

Well let me share a tip with you for dealing wuth snails in your garden, its called the "snail hotel". This tip is especially valuable if you have a garden and toddlers or pets (esp. dogs/cats). I found it to be extremely difficult to get rid of snails in my garden, because I prefer not to use the poisonous pellets that you can buy as these could be extremely dangerous for toddlers and pets. A colleagues of mine gave me this brilliant idea: You take a rectangular plastic container that can be sealed with a lid, and you cut out a opening on one side, the "door of the hotel". Inside the containiner you place a handful of the poisenous pellets and you place the "hotel" in a strategic postion in your garden. Ofcourse you can make more than one, if so required. The snails book in to this hotel VERY regularly, but they never never leave the hotel ever again. Haha! Easy solution! After a few weeks, you can easily clean the container and reinstall. The pets will now be safe!
