I can't cling film the lot though can I? Coz there'll suffocate :/ hmm..I panic'd and bought a very fine breathable fly net from eBay moments ago for £4.50...that'll stop em' maybe some pesky flies aswell xD, so yeah..it'll be 72hours before I have it though :/

Tape over the holes in the top? You could position the tape to leave only very very tiny holes. That's what I did when I put teeny tiny baby cepaea in a small plastic tank with holes in the lid |

teatowels with weights on top? or other such fine meshed covering devise - bed sheet etc
infact you could wrap the sheet around the whole lot - the snails wont mind it being dark for a bit
