Which is why the next time I go into gardening, will be a fully or mostly automated (the fun part) greenhouse. Snails stay outside.

I grow indoors. peppers, herbs, strawberries, tomatoes and cucumbers. snails might not get in, but once you get mites, and whiteflies and stinging gnats, its pretty much a constant struggle and a tradeoff between using really aggressive insecticides and chasing down infected plants. mites have been the worst, managed to stomp out the whiteflies and the gnats though.
