Since there is a lot of rain and a lot of moisture I went to the garden today to look at how it grows and found in the garden snails that graze on my salad. These are my biggest enemies in the garden. In no way can I get rid of them. I’ve tried all kinds of preparations and mechanical barriers, but I can not get rid of them anyway. Now one older woman advised me to try another egg shell. Around the garden, let me crush the egg shells and the sludge will not climb after it, as there are too many edges for the snails.

When I had an aquarium with fishes, I had 5 tiny snails in it, to clear the water
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, my friend…..these are useful then … they only do me damage in the garden
We don’t have a lot of snails here. Our grandsons pretty much wipe them out!
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear friend…I do not kill them … I just want to stop them from accessing the garden … although the snails are a living being
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear friend….verified helps … can not crawl through the shells because it is cut
So far it works pretty well…….
I have so much pests in the garden that it will soon pass away … now there was a huge ant … there are birds … they will eat everything
we get them in our backyard, it is very wet and the snails seem to multiple there. I’ve heard a little salt will keep the snails away. But, I do not know that for a fact.
I’ve even heard of salt … if you shake it with salt immediately die … I do not want to kill them … I just want to block them from accessing the garden, which is very difficult … when the drought is buried in the ground, It does not dry out
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment…..I forgot to thank you, dear friend
I had heard of salt, I have no idea
Will you believe that I tried salt … …. the penitence begins and dies … it works … it is only me that is not in the plan to kill them …. I would just turn them away from the garden
I believe you, I also believe you don’t want to kill them. sorry, this is not an area I have anything to offer.
Nevertheless, you tried hard and I respect that too
My son loves playing with snails. And he loves to watch Turbo. 😀

You can catch all of the snails and make some escargot. I never heard about egg shells shutting snails down.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, my friend…..can you please tell me what this is escargot?
Escargot is snails cooked in garlic butter. It is really popular in France and in Spain.
Thanks for the friendly explanation, my friend
In asian countries snails are special cuisines
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment….even with us you can find them in some specialty restaurants and are very expensive
I have read that the snail does not like the smell of coffee, it can be sprayed on the plants, which is nourishing the soil, and some animals that feed on the snail, such as chicks and frogs??????
Thanks for viewing and kind comment….thanks for clarification and advice
You are welcome my dear friend
Thank you for your kindness, dear friend … or have you made any announcement
Any time my friend???
there are a lot of low tech solutions for snails, surf around and try to find some…
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, my friend…I’ve heard a lot of things … I’ll try to get rid of this scourge
since you want a non-lethal solution, it may take a while
The best solution is the sun … when the sun’s snows disappear … just as soon as it rains again they return
not a dependable solution though…
I do not think she really is….The snails were and will be …
I do not have this problem because I do not have a garden. Leave them a friend, they can not degrade the whole garden.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Lacho
I have snails in the garden. I hope you will be able to escape the snails
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Vidocka….I have them as much as you want … I fight with them in every possible way
Weather conditions are very favorable for snails
They really are ideal, I just hope I’ll drive them
Yes, the snails hide from the light. Every time I do the garden the birds follow me and by feeding the birds they get rid of a lot of snails and slugs. Birds are the gardens best friend, but you may have to cover up the strawberries. put out fresh water for them
Another way of getting rid of snails is by putting beer into small containers and they become bloated and drown.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Pamela….very interesting … to give them beer … thanks for the advice …
I am not going to promise it will get rid of every one, but it will bring the snail population down and without using harmful pesticides.
I will never exterminate them … I just want to hunt them out of the garden … we have a lot of rain and they are very prolific
Having them cleared and in sight, the birds can also see them and they are food.I would also like to rid my garden of them.
I do not know if we have such a bird in our country to eat snails
We do not have such big birds to eat such a snail
I don’t have a garden anymore. Snails eat our crops, but they’re also food for small animals such as birds, hedgehogs and some reptiles.
They’re often food for humans too, yummy escargots. ?
I’m glad you just want to keep them far from your salads, and not kill them.
It sounds like egg shells might work. ?
Thanks for viewing and kind comment, my friend….I do not kill them … I’m trying to get them out of the garden … me with egg shells
Thankfully I do not have the snails in my garden. Good luck!
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Carol
Oh that’s really biggest enemy in the garden
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment….snails and ants … they eat it all
Pests like this are indeed difficult to remove from certain plants because they like its leaves.
Thanks for viewing and kind comment, dear Albert….salads are very fond of …. they do not get on the onion
Lettuce leaves are definitely very tasty for them, but the onion must be too spicy.
What keeps it … the onions smell them …. but there is no strange beer to them as well
What did you do to it finally?
Where the most critical one is I shook the egg shell and it really works …. they do not climb in shells because they cut
I hope you can find a solution to this problem. I don’t have a garden so I could not give advise. But I read somewhere that you can put salt on double sided sticky tape. This creates a barrier that they cannot cross. Hope it helps.
Thanks for viewing and friendly comment, dear Sharon….Thanks for the advice … I’ll try all the variants because it’s really an invasion … it’s a lot of rain and the climate is right for them
Eggshells and coffee powder work they keep them away from your salads. Besides both are highly nutritious to your plants too, they provide calcium and nitrogen that the plants need for growth.
Thanks for viewing and kind comment , dear friend….I have never heard of coffee … thanks for the advice … every advice is welcome
