Snails

[Lauruven]

how do I get rid of snails in enclosure? My nicest vivarium i have thats has my biggest & nicest plants in it has tons of terrestrial snails. I have once already stripped it down & put new substrate & drainage layers in. I cleaned plants i thought good enough by rinsing and cleaning in water, making sure no evidence of snails remained before re-adding to enclosure. I also put in new plants and got rid of a few of the old ones. But still 2nd time around & i got "the snail" again!!

When stripped it did bleach everything but the plants

Put in a bowl with beer which is high in alcohol (at least 8%). Snails will be drawn to the scent, but will drown in the liquid. I use this trick in the garden as well.
