I've had good luck keeping down snail populations with horticultural grade 
Diatomaceous Earth used
as a preventative.  It's not a quick killer, but will kill most insects and 
snail/slugs through
dehydration.  

I apply it to my plants at the rate of approximately 2 tablespoons per pot 
every other week the day
after I water them.  It doesn't last well through a real drenching and runs out 
of the pots.
