Small Snail On My Garage Door

Water your garden in the late afternoon.

Small snail on my garage door.

They don t migrate to the other garage door on the attached garage or anywhere else we can find on the house. I empty it when it s full of the little devils. Stupid useless biology degree. Since a few weeks i got a small slug infestation.

Picking snails from your garden one by one and dropping them into a bucket of soapy water or a plastic bag is an effective way to deal with the slimy pests. They are in the grass the soil our driveway on the garage door on the front steps the walkway everywhere. They are very small and you can see them with their tiny little shells. Since i have a large glass sliding door at the back of my house which the snails seem to like it gets covered in slugtrails and slugexcriments.

We put down a pellatized snail killer which didnt help a bit. We had this problem since mid summer but it seems to be getting worse now. Needless to say i d like to prevent this. Only on the garage.

We have no idea why they are there or what they like about it or even where they come from. I use snail bait in areas where snails and slugs are a problem. To keep the rain off the bait i pour a small amount in a plastic cup turn the cup on its side and let the snails have a party. Snails are drawn to areas that remain cool and damp such as under boards and planters or in water meter boxes.
