You know what sucks more than walking home at night and stepping on a snail? Wearing flip flops and stepping on two.

| A beautiful specimen. |
My residence is a beautiful place. Vintage brick charm, secret chairs and table courtyard and fragrant star jasmine growing around our windows. This seclusion plus Washington humidity is just what snails want for their summer fun.
The snail population was at such high rate this year that I had to take action: STSS. Save the Snails and your Shoes is the answer for this World Problem We are a very young movement dedicated to save the snails from their squishy death, but mostly really just save your shoes.
STSS uses creativity and color as the key solution, this is accomplished in the way of one dollar neon nail polish. A generous two coating of the snail's shell is required for maximum color vibrancy.
Using different colors and patters would be a great way to achieve art on your walls. Literally.
Did we save the snails? I think so! I haven't stepped on one since. I really haven't seen them in a while either though.
Do we know if this is toxic? No comment.
Did we save the shoes? One hundred percent. No shoe mess reported by me or visitors in a month.
What is in store for STSS in the future? We are slowly spreading our philosophy, snail slow you might say.
How can I join? Contact me (Chairman of STSS) by e-mail! STSS would be delighted have your support.
STSS is currently looking for a Vice-President, Treasurer and donators of neon nail polish.
"Saving snail by snail, shoe by shoe, the neon way".
