I might give that a try. The idea to sprinkle ground coffe sounds even better. I might even use used stuff from the coffee maker and save it from going to the garbage dump which creates hazadous gases there as opposed to my garden where it helps my garden rather then hurting the environment.Garden Anatomyhttp://gardenanatomy.blogspot.com/2009/07/lightning-fast-garden-snail-yes-they.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775185725543207452.post-5265335372143976562009-07-24T15:38:01.887-07:002009-07-24T15:38:01.887-07:00Thanks for the comments, We're getting another...Thanks for the comments, We're getting another bout of rain, so I've already built up my collection of coffee grounds and O'Douls.Steven Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04946526512042134092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775185725543207452.post-15723463038565035302009-07-21T21:05:39.695-07:002009-07-21T21:05:39.695-07:00Go to sleep, Roy.

I've heard that crushed eggshells work for this, but think that coffee grounds are available and, well, already crushed. Makes it a lot easier.

I've not had this particular problem (I'm expecting it, any day now), but I now people who went to extraordinary lengths, and never got results. <br /><br />I always said I'd heard ground eggshells work, but I imagine that coffee grounds are ubiquitous and are easier to, well, grind =) Works better for more folks.

Thanks for the tip.

That is just too much for me, love of wildlife or not!Carolehttp://www.conservationgardening.comnoreply@blogger.com
