Vermitid snail infestation

Been fighting them for the better part of a year now too. I find just using a tooth pick and putting a dab of super glue on the very end to cover the tip works well. Seals them in to die. Low risk to the corals around them since I am like a bulldozer every time my hands go in tank. Takes a while to get the upper hand but has been working out good for me so far!
 
I have heard that supergluing traps dead snail inside and if you have the amounts of tubes that I have it can cause a amonia spike if you break off tubes after because of dead rotting snails. I probably have high hundreds now thousand amount.
