I have a horrible snail problem, they munched up all the leaves on

Drives me nuts to do this much work to have snails eat my goods
after so much work nurturing from seeds. I am trying not to use
the Bug B Gone, or other toxic stuff in my yard or it would be an
easy solution. Other suggestions? I don't want them getting in to
my tomatoes and basil, or anything else for that matter.

I was in a local nursery this past weekend and noted that they were
SELLING snails. This piked my interest as I like the rest of the
sane world would prefer to get rid of them, not buy them. I asked
and was told that this variety eats other snails. Then I quietly
wonder, what do they eat when the other snails have all been
consumed - my plants or my dogsG?
