TooFarNorth:
 I have seen and removed many, many small snails from my citrus trees this year, but I have seen no damage in the area where they where removed from. Do some snails clean leaves? Can they be beneficial?  Do we any snailologists on here? Lol

Millet:
TFN when you see the snails up in your tree is it near dark.  Normally snails never come out in the sun.  I find them in my greenhouse and kill them with slug bait.  I have also gone out at night with a flash light and pick them off.

TooFarNorth:
Millet, I find them nearly anytime of day, but we haven't had a lot of sun this year. Most days are cloudy to partly cloudy, or just rainy. They are usually in the shade, though. I have them in my greenhouse also, but I find just as many outside.

Citradia:
I found small slugs on my grapefruit tree yesterday and noticed small holes in leaves.

Yorgos:
Toads eat snails and slugs.
