Snails seek shelter under stones and leaf litter to protect themselves from predators, desiccation, and extreme temperatures. These environments provide a moist microhabitat that is essential for their survival, as snails are vulnerable to drying out. Additionally, the organic materials found in leaf litter can serve as a food source, allowing them to thrive in these hidden spots.

Where can you find snails in your yard?

They are everywhere in your garden after if rains or while it is raining! I collected my garden snails from my garden myself. A lot of them come out when it rains, but if you don't want to get too wet, you can collect garden snails right when the rain stops or when it subsides to a slight drizzle. I found my garden snails all over the place, behind rocks, plants, on trees, everywhere!
