My BF's mum pointed out some big gaps in the mortar on her porch and
claims the snails are eating it.

Do they?
And what's the cure?

Scatter some salt around the area.
Should keep the snails away.


It might season the concrete so they enjoy it more :-) Go on, add some
black pepper as well :-)


Anyone else had a snail infestation these last few months?

They have not eaten my mortar but are over the house walls (outside),
pathways and fences. Even on the van wheels in a morning. I wonder how far I
drive before they fall off?
