      Have the real thing that large in the yard ! Evidently some "Frog" brought escargot snails over & they got away. Now called: Pests

      we have the same problem here in the bay area blunder! and they can be especially bad for us people who own nurseries!

      Luv escargot! Wonder if they are the right type ? I'll as my Frog neighbours .

      as another 'frog', i can attest that this does look like the right kind of snail to make a rubbery treat!
