Why not try marking the shells of the next lot with Tipex or nail
varnish and then you will see if they do come back.

As in crunch or do you supply them with bus fares?

As in **crunch** I'm afraid. It's the snail version of playing
chicken! At least they have a chance to escape. Only 2 buses per
hour! I might consider applying for a pass for them but they don't
carry purses!
**snail varnish**; good one!

the two weeks they stayed with us not one snail appeared. Two days later
however~~~!! You can't beat them.
