This is a bit of a complicated issue which I've begun discussing with the USDA. So far I know any lichen/algae/fungi feeders from florida (like drymaeus and caracolus) are legal to ship across the USA. No GALS of any species are permitted. There is a possibility that foreign snails might be permitted (i.e. non-usa tree snails) but I haven't emailed any organization to figure out if this is true.

I would spit myself but you seem very skilled at it

I could, since I have the email addresses to the people who handle the mollusc related questions at the USDA. I just haven't done so because even if its legal I don't personally know anyone selling tree snails from other countries, and I don't really look at what species are sold on foreign pet snail websites. Do you someone who would be willing to ship them?
