@Crwfz1,you can put some ferramol aroung the spot, it poisin for only snails.
Or make a mix of water(1 liter) alcohol(3cl) and malt (25g), put it in some empty milk carton and place them around the spot.
Also you can make a slug trap lof an empty can around the plant, with Copper tape around it like this

or you cut the copper and let it hang down from the can in slices ๐
