Using eggshell to control plant and flower pests can control diseases and pests without drugs.

Using eggshell to control pests is a very cheap method, and it is also very easy to use. It can be used when growing flowers on the yard or balcony. The eggshell must be clean before use, and it should be scalded or air-dried with boiling water before use.

Before using the eggshell, it is best to grind it into powder, so that the eggshell can be well preserved and the effect will be better.

Snails and slugs are easy to harm plants when they are warm and humid in summer. Japanese beetles are also easy to harm plants. Slugs eat all the leaves on plants such as hairpin flowers.

In addition to using eggshells, you can also use diatomite, which is ground into granular fossil remains, and can also be used as an insecticide to ward off pests. Diatomite is spread directly on the soil surface to prevent pests from approaching. If slugs and snails approach, they will be hit by the sharp thorns of diatomite.

Finely chopped eggshells have the same effect. Don't throw away the leftover eggs. It is very useful to use eggshells in the garden, so let's show how to use them.

Grind eggshell with coffee grinder

According to my experience, the best eggshell grinder is the coffee grinder, which can grind the eggshell into powder very well.

Eggshell can be washed with clean water, can also be scalded with boiling water, if the egg shell residual egg white so it is easy to stink, but also easy to attract insects, scalding with boiling water can avoid residual fungal diseases.

To make it easier to break eggshells, it's best to expose them to the sun for a few days, about three days, or just put them in the oven to dry.

Once the eggshell is dried, it is easy to break. You can crush it into powder or pieces. You can even put it directly in the coffee grinder. Before grinding, break the eggshell.

The eggshell powder can be used directly in the garden, can be directly used to control pests, and you can sprinkle it directly on plants with pests.

Japanese beetles are afraid of these broken eggshells. If they are sprinkled around, they will not kill these pests, but they can drive them away.

To better protect plants from diseases and insect pests, you can sprinkle a circle of finely crushed eggshell powder around the plant and sprinkle it evenly to prevent pests from approaching.

When sprinkling eggshell powder, you should clean your hands, preferably wearing gloves to avoid getting on your mouth and nose.

If you can use the remaining egg powder, it should be stored in a dry and cool place and can be used continuously in the future.

Eggshell powder can not only drive away pests, it also plays a good role in replenishing calcium in the soil, but also indirectly promote plant growth, help to promote plant growth more robust, and avoid flower buds.
