With slightly contorted logic, some gardeners apparently hurl snails, threatening their prize blooms, into their neighbour's garden (rather than kill them). New research from Queen Mary University and Exeter (http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/may/16/snails-homing-instinct-overcome-move-20-metres-away) suggests, however, that you need to throw the errant molluscs more than 20 metres if you don't want core members of the local garden population to return (homing snails?). Gardeners will have to tone up those muscles (or use a catapult)!
