Gardeners throughout Lincolnshire are encouraged to consider a straightforward and environmentally friendly approach to defend their plants and flowers from slugs and snails during the winter. The application of pulverized egg shells to the soil offers a natural shield against these prevalent garden pests. Beyond protecting gardens in chilly weather, this practice can also assist in the reduction of kitchen waste. As the Lincolnshire horticulture society continues adopting sustainable methods, this particular strategy provides a practical resolution to an ongoing concern, ensuring abundant and vibrant gardens all season.
