my 2 cents.


snail stop (or any other bait, sold in home depot) did the trick for me.

i add the bait to the floor, (pleny of them) and wait , check floor next day, i killed dozens of those suckers , and it seems i am clean , however i do recommend doing the same thing once every two week for 2 months, and you will get rid of them forever, (given that no other infected plant either with snails or slugs enters the greenhouse (eggs).

Silje - in South Africa, you can buy "snail bait" (Kombat or Efekto brands) in almost any supermarket - I guess you're not so lucky in Nam?

I eventually found it!

At the last option within 200 km radius.
