Do they look like this?



See how their shells are on kinda laying on their sides instead of straight up?

If so, those are mini ramshorns and will never get bigger than about 1/8". Those are hitchhiker P
pest snails no one wants.

Start picking them out and destroying eggs sacs. If you have a fish tank, smash them up and feed them to the fish, they love them.
