I need some ideas to help snail proof my float sensors for my auto top-off. I have the JBJ auto top-off and use the sensors for that. Today I looked at my water line and realized it was higher than it should be and my auto top-off was still running. So I checked the sensor in the sump and there was a snail on the glass behind it causing the sensor to not be able to move up or down. Anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to help?


Thanks


Ricky

You can put it inside a piece of PVC like the below picture. I have a few and they work great.
