Grow the best vegetables possible by making your own compost

  » Home & Garden


Make sure you don't add any pet excrement to the compost. Dog and cat manure can have worm eggs that can survive for over a year, even in the heat of the compost and can then stick to the vegetables and infect humans.

Garden Slug Control - without poison or pesticides

  » Home & Garden


The most effective way to get rid of slugs (better than even the best poison available) is to use stale beer(or new if you like) in a 3" wide by 1.5" high container. They will come from a wide area, crawl in, and drown. + No risk of poisoning your pets.

Garden Slug Control - without poison or pesticides

  » Home & Garden


Found this out the hard way - the beer will tend to attract slugs from a rather wide area, so don't place it in the middle of the flower bed, as the slugs will take bites off of flowers and veggies on their way to it. Best to place them at the edges.
