I hope it's okay for me to ask a question about snails on orchids in general.

I've realized, in hindsight, that my Phrag. Sunset Glow had snails when I got it home. I found one almost immediately after unpacking it, and thought nothing of it (removed the snail of course), then I found another one during the repot (removed than one as well), but still thought nothing of it. I didn't realize they were pests, I just thought they were general hitchhikers.

Now, after reading about them, I can't help but feel a bit perplexed. I've now had this Phrag for about a year, and aside from the two I found when I had purchased it, I have seen no sign of any snails since. It seems rather weird for them to disappear that easily. Can that happen and why? I can't think of a single thing I might have done that could've discouraged any snails.
