According to the BBC:
A fifth of British gardeners have thrown snails over their neighbour's fence, according to a survey.
Some 22% of people questioned for the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) said they had tossed a snail into their neighbour's garden, compared with 78% who said they had not.
Londoners were the worst culprits, with 30% admitting they had done it. Gardeners in Scotland were least likely, where 14% admitted they had thrown a snail over a garden fence.
Only a fifth? I thought everybody did it. My theory was, if there is a snail in my back garden, it must have come from a neighbour's garden, so all I am doing is returning it whence it came.
So let's see if we get the same responses here.

If slugs and snails appear in my garden they don't leave. This is the last garden they ever see.
They don't come back from where I send them.
Never bothered about slugs until I started growing nicotiana tabacum. Now, like LI, they rapidly become ex-slugs.
I have lobbed them over the wall but only into the garden to the north of FatBigot Towers which is not used, and only when I find a single specimen.
When there are numerous shelled slimy nibblers in evidence I fetch a little bucket half full of water, add bleach or Jay's Fluid and drop the invaders in to enjoy their last drink.
They fizz.
The bucket is then emptied over the wall into the garden to the north.
