When cleaning glass...
...do you knock snails/stars off? Maybe I'm a softy but I scrape around them and finish later after they've moved.

I try to go around them - but if I happen to boot one to the floor, I try to make sure he's upright.

I skip the snails because it's a pain to have to go back and "right" them since they can't right themselves if landed upside down. But I don't care for the stars, they just get right back up.

I know what you mean, but you can pick the big snails off easy if you scrape your fingernail under the rear end of the snail's mantle and lift. They come right off, no pulling, try it.
