This is good to know.

Eryn McBride posted several photos on social media that show these pink "things" from the Broussard Sports Complex.

These pink clusters are eggs and are extremely toxic. Apple Snails can pose a danger to you and/or your pets if you come into contact with them.

According to the state Wildlife and Fisheries website, "People should also avoid handling the egg clusters as they may contain a neurotoxin that irritates the eyes and skin."

While these Apple Snails were spotted in Broussard, La. at the sports complex, you should always keep an eye out for them if you're out and about this Spring.
