Some of the most destructive pests in the home garden can be slugs and snails. They can be as small as a pinhead all the way to the size of a baseball. These pests eat the leaves and fruit of many vegetables in the garden. While they have great destructive capabilities, they are also fairly easy to control.
Diatomaceous Earth
To use, just form a ring of powder around the plant to be protected. After heavy rain, reapply. It is that simple, and is very effective. It also will not harm any beneficial predators like toads and birds!
Diatomaceous Earth can be purchased at just about any garden shop and is available online at places like Amazon!
