12. Keeping pests away with a tea bag
Used tea bags, as well as coffee grounds, help keep pests away from your flowers and plants. Most pests don’t like the smell of coffee and tea. Place a used tea bag near your prized plants to prevent them from being eaten.
You can also throw a tea bag in your compost. The acids in the tea can accelerate the decomposition process of the compost. This means that you can use the compost for your garden much sooner. You and your garden will both be happy!
