We have had quite a bit of wet weather here in South East Queensland of late. I have a door into the laundry from the outside which is one third glass at the top. On it I have an A4 sheet of paper as a sign and wording on it. It's not important about the wording...anyway my partner noticed it was being eaten away, I knew it to be snail damage because the little buggers love your mail if you leave it in the letterbox to long in the wet season.
I put a new sign up and the next day here was a little bugger having a feed on one corner..being the attenborough sort I did not want to harm it so picked it off and put it outside. Bugger me dead, the next day there was another one there, then I thought, nah, could not be the same one. So I got the liquid paper pen and marked it's shell and put it outside in a different spot. Yup, the same little bugger was back the next day gnawing on the paper again. Wodered if it was following it's own scent or trail?
So I placed it way, way out the back. Did not come back, unless it is still on it's way. True story and not a Snail Tale at all.
