   You could make a paste or (better), a juice extraction of hot chili, and that would be enough, but you could add to the “poison”, (raw) onion and very specially, garlic, and make a paste with it. I’m sure you’ll get results!
   About answer number one, it says strange things, but, if I were you, I would study what it says, because, although it’s wrong that snails don’t like the beer ( or did I read it bad?), snails DO like it, and one way to catch them is to bury a 10 centimeters can (some 5 inches), and pour only one inch (2 centimeters) of beer, and the snails will fall in it to drink it, but unable to leave the can. I think the number one answerer heard right things but remember them wrong. And there are plenty of ways to face this trouble.
   But the best way could be one step ahead and grow things in a greenhouse with sterilized air.

   This is mostly hearsay, but I’ve heard that shiney metal objects (like aluminum pie pans) will detract birds, snails don’t like beer, and lady bugs eat aphyds (they like sucking juice out of plants. that can kill them if there are too many). Short of a heavy boot and a bee bee gun I don’t know what else would help.
