    Snails like the dark - tick
    Snails like the damp - tick
    Snails like to eat plants - tick
    Why do they try to crawl out of the council bin?
    Sounds like snail heaven.

            Snails and slugs love Doom Bar in my beer traps. Brings a tear to my eye as I pour it into my jam jar trap.
