Aahh.. the good old garlic snail. These were reeking a bit of havoc among orchid growers earlier this year - they would gnaw away the root tips causing the plant to not absorb enough water and the leaves on new growths would turn yellow and fall off There is a product I bought from Alan Merriman (Miriam Ann Orchids in Glenbrook, Blue Mts) that I can't remember the name of. It was in liquid form but I'm not sure how effective it is - not very from memeory as I haven't used it for years. Some advocate repotting while ensuring there are no snails remaining on the plant when you do. If you have a large collection this is not practical. Alan is the best person to talk to on this topic.
