No, we thought about it back when we were living on the coast but decided 
against it because no one seemed to know the end result and there have been 
so many problems with introducing stuff that was *supposedly* going to be 
helpful and then it because a bigger problem than what it was supposed to 
help (pampus grass comes to mind)  .  Then when I did some investigation, I 
found they are becoming a problem in some areas and have been outlawed in 
some states and some parts of other states.  If you don't have enough snails 
for them (they only eat young ones, aren't predatory to adults, btw), they 
eat seedlings, etc.
