Since everyone has their own method (using medicine with copper in it for example or bleach), what is your method and how effective has it been this far?
How do you remove snails from plants?

I tend to dip the plants a few times in vinegar and a light copper solution (as copper kills snails and most invertebrates). Then I rinse them throughly in water to make sure the copper treatment is gone so it’s safe for my tanks that do have invertebrates and snails (the ones that I do want that is).

Dipping the plants in bleach solution will kill snails. Then rinse well under tap water for atleast 5 mins.

I manually remove the snails. I also dip the plants in a mixture of bleach, hydrogen peroxide and alum to prevent any snails from growing on it.
