Hi Karen,

Baysol Snail and Slug Bait is not registered for use around food crops. Perhaps you might like to try beer traps or broken egg shells. The snails are attracted to the beer and will crawl in and drown. They won't like to crawl over the egg shells as they are sharp on their undercarriage. There are organic snail products which you can buy that act as a deterrent.
