Tiny snails
Tiny snails

I have plants growing along the top of a wall. There are dozens of tiny snails shaped like cones in amongst them. What are they and how do I get rid of them?

They are a protected species here so you must not kill them best to spray them with the garden hose or pick them up and move they they are harmless

Find it hard to believe they are a protected species,

If it is this one it eats all the rest of the destructive snails and pests in the garden
