   Search at the optimal time. Though snails may be out at any time, they are primarily nocturnal. This is because snails are susceptible to drying out in direct sunlight. Most snails go out searching for food when it’s dark out (or at least darker than usual), so that would be the best time to find one.^[1]
   

   • If at all possible, try to go looking for snails in the evening or on dark, overcast days.

   Check common snail habitats. Snails can live in many different places, but most terrestrial snails live in shaded, damp areas. If there isn’t much shade available, many snails will burrow under hard objects that remain cool and damp away from direct sunlight.^[2]
   Some common snail habitats include:

   • rocks
   • debris
   • flower pots
   • wooden planks on the ground
   • damp, shaded areas^[3]
     
   • weedy or leafy areas close to the ground

   Look for a slime trail. One telltale sign of a snail is the viscous, sticky trail of slime it leaves in its wake. If you’re having a hard time spotting snails, you might have more luck if you search for their slime trails and follow a sticky streak to the snail itself.^[4]
   

   • Slime is usually left in silvery streaks across dry surfaces.
   • You might see a slime trail on rocks, dirt, pavement, or on vertical surfaces like trees and walls.

   Seek out ideal conditions. Freshwater snails can live in any aquatic habitat. Some snails do well in polluted waters, but for the most part, snails typically thrive in clean, clear bodies of water.^[5]
   

   • Stable, clean substrates at the bottom of the water are ideal habitats for snails.
   • Clean, clear water that is not murky or full of sediments will house the greatest range of snail species.
   • Look for water bodies with high oxygen concentrations to find the most snails. Fast-moving water bodies with a lot of rapids or falls tend to be the most oxygenated habitats.

   Search river bottoms. While there are many snails that live in standing bodies of water, fast-moving water bodies tend to produce ideal conditions for snails to inhabit. Rivers, creeks, and streams are ideal freshwater snail habitats, with medium- to large-sized rivers yielding the most species of snail.^[6]

   Try larger bodies of water. Lakes and ponds are common freshwater snail habitats. However, they do not have the biodiversity or the ease of access that a river/creek/stream bottom has. You may still be able to find snails in a lake or pond, provided that the water is clear enough to allow sunlight and oxygen to reach the bottom.^[7]

   Lure snails out of hiding. If you’re having trouble finding snails in the wild, you might try luring snails out by creating ideal conditions for them. Remember that terrestrial snails like cool, slightly wet environments that are out of direct sunlight.^[8]
   

   • Identify an area that might house snails. You can usually find snails in cool, damp, shaded environments or near food sources like gardens.
   • Water the area late in the afternoon. Try to dampen the soil and leave a mist on any low lying vegetation nearby.
   • Return after dark with a flashlight. If snails inhabit the area you’ve watered, you should see them or their slime trails fairly easily.

   Create a snail hiding place. If there aren’t any ideal snail habitats in your area, you can create your own by leaving objects in and around a garden or field. As you set up your hiding places, consider whether a given object would provide adequate shade and moisture to a soil-dwelling terrestrial snail.^[9]
   

   • Try laying boards of wood, large, flat bricks, stones, or flower pots near an area you believe snails inhabit.
   • You can also use inverted melon rinds, but be aware that these may also attract other insects like ants.

   Build a pitfall trap. Pitfall traps are an excellent way to catch terrestrial invertebrates. Be aware, though, that pitfall traps catch many different kinds of ground-dwelling insects. Your pitfall trap may catch a couple snails, but it will most likely also catch other critters. This will require some sifting through and releasing other insects.^[10]
   

   • Dig a small hole in the ground that is deep and wide enough to hold a cup.
   • Add beer or baking yeast to a 5% sugar and water solution in a pitfall trap. Be sure you only leave a shallow pool of liquid or the snails you catch might drown.
   • Check your trap on a regular basis. You may decide to check every day or you might check the trap multiple times each day, but if you leave your snail for a prolonged period of time it may die.

   Catch aquatic snails. Aquatic snails can be a bit more difficult to catch than terrestrial snails. However, with the right tools you should be able to find and catch some freshwater snails near you. One of the most common ways of catching aquatic snails (and other aquatic invertebrates) is by using a kick-net.^[11]
   

   • Purchase or build a kick-net. A kick-net can be easily made by fastening a long, thin mesh to two wooden poles, creating a net that looks like a giant scroll with handles in the folded ends.
   • Look for an area in the water where there are riffles or falls.
   • Approach the chosen area from downstream to avoid disturbing any snails you might catch.
   • You can use rocks to stabilize the net underwater and downstream, then lift submerged objects to “shake” snails loose. You can also hold the handles of the kick-net so the net is downstream and walk backward upstream, kicking rocks and submerged objects loose.
   • Be aware that a kick-net will catch all kinds of aquatic invertebrates. While some of the invertebrates you catch may be snails, there will probably be many other types of unwanted invertebrates present in the net as well.

• Look for snails after the rain because they like damp places.

• Following a snail trail in sunlight or with bright lights will make it easier.

• Snails like fruit and vegetables, so try putting some out to attract them.

• Be careful not to accidentally crush the snails you find. They can have very delicate shells.

• Always wash your hands after handling snails.
