Hiya
One way is to add a chunk of cucumber last thing at night. Then first thing in the morning there should be loads of the pests on there. Just lift it out and bin it:)

LOL yes but just think what else you flush down the loo and the chemicals used to clean them. You don't what a mutated giant snail biting you on the bum

Through 'em in the garden! A pond if you have it, if it makes you feel better that's the 'nicest' thing to do I would imagine.

Next to our house, we have a massive forest, so it may please the animal neighbors 
Or the insects etc
But i could throw the other way, into my neighbors garden which is in front! :D

LOL
We put the snails in a jug then pour boiling water over them.
My neighbour wont give my little boys footballs back so we started chucking our dogs poo right outside her back gate and down the alley, they're the only ones who can use it. I also push the rubbish in my garden under my hedge into hers, i can't stand her! Writing down has made me feel like a right meanie!
Netty men are never adults!
