Of course snails are safe; they are an aquarium's janitors. Aquarium plants don't 'cause' snails; occasionally plants come in with snail eggs on them. Snails are no bad thing; it's only when you overfeed your fishes that they reach plague proportions.
Aquarium plant bulbs rarely if ever have snail eggs on them.
Nearly every freshwater aquarium has snails, the number based on fish feeding and maintenance practices.
