There's a snail!
Today I found a huge snail in my kitchen( the kind without shells) it's about 5 "CM long or even 8cm. I remember I saw one few days ago and it's kind of scared me because I am not sure why it would be there and how to deal with it.
I assume because it's very humid here in this area and snails like it. So I took a video of the it and sent to my friend, he asked me to cut it in half with scissors or put some salt around where they are active. I think cut it in half is prett nasty and I really don't like the idea.
So I bought some snail killer on taobao which I am not sure if it would work or not. At the end my friend said "oh please check your bed before you sleep, some snails eat human's toes!"

Hello Daisy,
It is true that these creatures like damp places, you will often see them on the path after rain. These creatures are called slugs, not snails. Salt is probably the best way to deal with them. And don't worry about your toes your friend is teasing you, they are very unlikely to go into your bed and they certainly won't eat your toes!
Best wishes

*or, would want to be there ...?
*'snail' is the generic term. (shelled=snail, unshelled=slug)
