You will need to blanch a piece of cabbage or lettuce and then sink it in your tank overnight. The next morning you can just pick off the snails from the piece of cabbage and repeat the process with fresh lettuce till the numbers come down.

It is VERY important to remove all of the eggs (nits) . Soak the lice comb for 15 minutes in hot ammonia water (1 tsp ammonia to 2 cups hot water). Or, boil the metal comb in plain water for 15 minutes. Use an old toothbrush to clean the comb. The comb can now be used on another family member.
