Is it mating season? The shelled critters UpNort seek a certain kind of ground after mating to lay their eggs and it is pretty hard to deter them, even though their path might take them across a busy highway if left to do their own thing. For some reason they seem to want to travel uphill.
I'll echo Post #3. Probably best to let them go about their business.
