Eggs are not only nutritious, but their shells offer numerous benefits for your garden and home. Here are seven reasons to keep those eggshells:
Natural Pest Deterrent
Scatter eggshells around plants to deter slugs, worms, and snails. These pests dislike the sharp texture, keeping them away from your garden.
Repels Deer
If deer are a problem, sprinkle eggshells around your plants. Deer dislike the smell, making them avoid your garden.
