4. Using garlic against slugs
Do snails regularly feed off your plants? There is a natural solution that you can use to chase snails out of your garden. All you need is garlic. Snails do not like the pungent smell of this herb. The moment the mollusks smell the smell of garlic, they’ll stay away from the garlic cloves or bulbs.
Wondering what to do exactly? You’ll read it on the next page.
What to do?
- Crush two whole garlic bulbs and put them in a bowl or bucket.
- Boil 1 liter of water and pour it over the crushed garlic bulbs and let it sit for 20 minutes.
- Carefully pour the water into a spray bottle (making sure the water has cooled enough).
- Spray the plants that are being eaten by snails with the garlic water and you will notice the snails start to disappear. Nice and easy!
