How do I keep snails out of my bunnies enclosure?


Just a heads up, English is not my first language so my apologies in advance for wrong wording or grammar.

So, I’ve been having snail/slug problems. Every morning when I go feed my bunnies I see a lot of slime and just paths from where they have been. But this is nowhere else in our garden, only on places they have been.

I know the setup is a little weird in the pic so allow me to explain. I ‘bought’/ got two bunnies from my aunt. They recently had a little nest of three bunnies and I just fell in love with one of em, and also with another. I got them when they were the good age (I think 2 months?) and when we looked then, they all looked like girls. But, after a while, while trying tl bond with them I saw moby (the brown one in the far left corner) get onto Jef (the black with white one). So we took them to the vet to double check and turned out, our two girls were actually one male and one female. But because they were pretty young, we couldn’t castrate him. So now, until about the end of august, we have to keep them seperated because I nor have the money nor place to have a litter. Not to mention they’re siblings. But we mostly try to keep their enclosures next to each other and we switch enclosures every day so they don’t hate each other and still are civil and nice to each other.

You can call me a horrible owner all you want because at the moment, I know there enclosures are small. But my initial idea, before we had to keel em separated, was to make a big one of the white one on the right and the white one on the left together through some crafts or idk how to call it, so they had a pretty big one.

Now for the problem, the slugs. It’s like no matter where we move our bunnies, the slugs/snails follow.

Any ideas what I can do about it? Because it is not a pleasure to clean and also just for them, I don’t want them to get sick..

Thank you in advance
