Don't Throw Your Egg Shells Away! Pest Proof Your Garden!

The next time you boil up some eggs, save the shells, crush them up, and scatter them around the stalks of any plants in your garden that you wish to protect. Those eggs shells will keep away slugs and snails.

Do you live in rural areas and have deer wander in and bother your plants? They are beautiful animals; however, they love to come around and snack on garden flowers. So, sprinkle eggs shells around your flower beds, too. Deer don't like the smell of egg shells so they are known to steer clear of plant beds with egg shells. Do try natural first before chemicals.

Have a great day,
Donna
