Giant African Snail

[*KRONIK*]

Doh wanna start a new thread, but since we on pest control

Whats a good solution to deal with them house lizards?

I noticed all over the country, ppl are complaining about an increase in the population

But, they so crafty and hard to catch/kill

Last night i ketch 2 bullin'
I blast them with some break & parts cleaner
They lived to tell the story

Cats does deal with them.

Not that lazy one i had, she used to pretend she didnt see or hear

Too much food.

Nice life

Funny thing is: she was hunting before she became "domesticated"
Then she was spayed after her 1st litter
She get rel lazy after, and turned into a chonk.
We was adopted by a girl with multiple cats, now she bossing around the other cats and dogs, and i heard she catching birds now.

Lol

but fellas,

Anyone seeing an upsurge in some dry looking white slugs?
They like 3-4 inches long.

Noticed a couple in my yard thus far, apart from the usual plentiful small brown slender slugs

Wynn's carb and parts cleaner seems to kill them instantly.

They do, cuz i remember finding a few in a sheltered seasoning pot with some loose type soil.
So they have a way they does burrow

Happen to me already. I thought I won the battle … strange thing is when they in hibernation they somehow grow …. Because when the rains come they are already bigger.

I used to wonder about that...like outta the blue, two BIG ones would randomly show up...until I reaized my neighbour's yard is festering with them and he does nothing about them, and occasionally they find their way over the wall, and via branches of his soursop tree that used to hang over the wall. I made him cut the branches and now I always have the property line sprinkled with pellets

[*KRONIK*]

So..... they are back

[*KRONIK*]

If i mix thiovine really strong and put it in a spray bottle, can i just zap them a few times and they will die?
Or does it have to be ingested to work?

I throw away all them old containers i used to collect snails in and i aint feel like starting back a collection

[j.o.e]

That’s the problem. They never went away. Even when you’re not seeing them you need to continue with all procedures just less aggressively. I learned my lesson with that.

There seems to be a small infestation in Malabar. And by small I mean over 100 have been killed in recent weeks. Just some salt.

At 2am i looked out and saw a big one crossing the lawn. Gonna arm up for an early attack on them later this week. Pellets and gonna get a bucket of salt to deposit any that turn up nightly. Will drop them in the bucket instead of salting them and damaging lawn after this harsh dry period

[hong kong phooey]

them roasting that on a stick all over Nigeria and selling it by the roadside how we sell doubles
just like puffer fish and lion fish you need to know how to handle it.

All you have to say to people is it good for the boy.

[matr1x]

Giant African snail? Why dey do Fitzy dutty so for?

[Dizzy28]

So I guess it was just a matter of time.
Last week saw a few GAS in the yard. One medium sized mofo and a few smaller ones. We don't have any plants in the yard but the neighbour have seim and pumpkin growing along the chainlink fence between us and him. That's more than likely where they feeding as I took some off the seim last night.

Been collecting the ones I see and placing in a bucket of bleach.

Not really feeling to read back this entire thread - what is a good poison to get and where can I get it?
