Thanks for all the comments!
My garden is infested with snails. I catch and kill them by throwing them into a bucket with salt water. On a daily basis(WOW). This picture is not my idea, I saw something similar and tried it. Caught a medium sized snail, put it onto a piece of stick and it intuitively tested the water. It fell off a few times however, and this might surprise you, they do not drown, they go to the bottom and s(n)ail out! right back onto my dahlias!

Great find. The possible fate of the snail isn't too promissing, though, unless you saved it.
