Nail the snails: An ID guide

Knowing exactly what species of snail you have is the first step in managing them. Dr Kym Perry is a research fellow in entomology at the University of Adelaide and in this video he goes into detail about the four main snail culprits in Australian crops and how to identify each one. Dr Perry is leading a four-year GRDC investment in collaboration with the South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI), the University of South Australia, CSIRO, the Western Australian Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) and other research partners.
