And we set out to test these stories...are they myths or are they plausible?
"We heard that snails won't crawl over salt."
This was our setup...
We wanted to see whether the snails would cross the circle of salt to get to the cabbage.
It turns out they won't go near the salt...they avoided it. We say this myth is PLAUSIBLE!
"We heard that snails won't crawl over coffee grounds."
So we tried the same setup as the salt but this time we used coffee grounds...
It turns out they are very happy to crawl across coffee grounds! We say this myth is BUSTED!
"We heard the snails are attracted to beer."
In our test we gave them a choice of cabbage or beer...
It turns out they were attracted to the beer but they wouldn't get right in. We are calling this myth PLAUSIBLE!
