How to Get Rid of Snails in the Garden
Remove hiding spots, change watering times, and protect seedlings. Poison is not the first step.
A seedbed at ground level on damp grass is a buffet. Raise the tray and close the hotel under the pots.
Protocol
Go out with a flashlight, collect them, remove boards, water tomorrow, use tensioned mesh, physical copper, or pellets only if the pressure is absurd and the product is for the garden.

High seedbeds and mesh in planters. Less grass at the edge, fewer night shifts.
