Does anyone know much on how to tell the species of garden slugs and snails?!
I have three slugs and a snail, I think the snail is a brown garden snails but not sure, and one of the slugs is possibly a banana slug but im not sure about the other two (they are the same) They have black bodies with light brown lines down either side of the body! Does anyone know how big any of these will get? Sorry about all the questions but the internet isnt all that helpful :\ xx |

Re: Garden slugs and snails!
Ive got garden snails too, I rescued them from my parents house after they where fedup of the snails eating the plants, They used slug pellets to kill them
I released them in my garden where they have been living for about a year, The other half wants rid now because they are eating her plants. I collected them all up today and put them in a tank, Ive got about 30 of them.If a snail does eat a slug pellet it will obviously die, But if you get to it in time there is a way of saving it. A dish full of water, Keep putting the snail in the water, Make sure it can breathe though. It takes between 1 to 12 hours to rehydrate them. IMHO, Its worth it |

Re: Garden slugs and snails!
I had a garden snail when I was a kid no idea what species he was but he was a cute little thing. I had him in a tank with lots of grass etc he lived about 5 months I have no idea what their life span is. He was called Sammy.
