Giant African Land Snails (GALS)

Like most Bajan gardeners, I'm at war with GALS. I hate the senseless killing but I don't plan on eating them. I also don't want to use the traditional poisons, which will also kill Aris. Initially I used a bleach solution with some success. I usually collected the snails in the early morning. I missed this morning and after the rains today I noticed that several snails were about. I got my bucket and assistant (Aris) and collected my largest harvest yet. I decided to use a saline solution and left the snails to expire in due course.

Not long after that, Dick went to change a washer in the garden tap and he shouted for me to come - a break out was in progress.
