  • call a petstore or vet. they could recommend a treatment or dip for it.
  • you can save a snail by getting it a new shell when it comes out of its old one because if you don't it will simply die and you can say good by to it.
  • NO! this is so wrong. snails grow their shells. when they die other animals inhabit the old shell. hermit crabs inhabit random shells. when they outgrow that shell they move to another.

Will snails cross a salt barrier?

A snail's skin is very sensitive to salt because their body, like ours, is comprised of mostly water. Snails have a hydrostatic skeleton that makes them even more sensitive to salt. Osmosis causes the water inside the snail to diffuse out of the snail when salt is placed on it. These facts lead me to believe that a snail will not try to cross a barrier of salt.
