MESSAGE FROM A SNAIL

Hello, I am a snail. You might not always like me because I eat the leaves in your garden. However, I’d like to share something about myself and my babies. Please don’t use harmful chemicals that hurt us and pollute your garden. A simple alternative like sprinkling coffee grounds around your plants will keep me away, and it enriches your soil too!

If you ever see me on a flowerpot, be gentle. Pulling me off could break my protective shell and be fatal. Also, if you notice tiny creatures trailing me, those are my babies. They are born very delicate and without shells. Nature soon provides them with a fragile, soft shell, so please handle them with care.

We may be small, but we play a significant role in the ecosystem. Help us thrive, thank you!
