Snails do carry diseases! African land snails can harbor and pass on Meningitis and Schistosomiasis--a parasitic disease. They also are loaded with bacteria like salmonella and e-coli.
At least carrots and one of their favourite is a cucumber...
Aphids, cucumber beetles, flea beetles, pickleworms, slugs & snails.
African snails, like all complex organisms can become afflicted with diseases, deformation, and will eventually succumb to the effects of aging. So, in short, there are multiple things that can cause an African snails to die.
Aquarium snails are different from regular land snails. All aquatic snails have gills. Just like their land relatives, these snails also have radula(rasping tongue),tentacles, and hard shells. Aquatic snails do not have as developed eyes as land snails. Many aquatic snails have a door or an opcerium at the entrance of their shell. Some aquatic snails also grow to the size of a baseball.

giant African land snails are constant eaters so as long as there is food they will eat it. also they need a constans surply of cuttle fish bone or they will die, there fav food is lettice an cucumber
Yes. Most land snails live in dark, moist places.
if you have African land snails as pets you will no what they (your ones) like, every group of snails in a tank can share 1 peice of cuttle fish all you do is wash it and put it in the tank ontop of the mud and they will suck it to make there shell strong. BUT you need to wash it very well first or the gurms from it could cause them to die BUT you need to give them a bit or they WILL DIE ANYWAY.
i have snails and i just use a bucket and feed them a couple leaves of lettuce and any fruit such as grapes.
