I didn't save coffee grounds. I bought a coffee at the local Starbucks and asked for their grounds. I got 40 pounds of the stuff. My strawberries have not suffered a single bit of slug or snail damage since I put the grounds down. It works great. The grounds in the video look like they haven't been brewed. It works better if they have been used.
Keen observers noticed the empty space to the right was just as effective in deterring them.
I know this is a timelapse, but damn it is creepy seeing slugs moving so fast!
So, actually , snails just "hate" coffie, and they'll not die eat we spray coffee on them in garden ... Great !!!
Caffeine evolved specifically to ward off slugs, snails, and insects
They are beautiful, please love them and leave them alone.........................gods watching!
That is how I ended up here, I don’t want to kill them, I just want a natural deterrent before they eat all my cabbage leaves.
LOL. Great parody.
Well I'm not going to frigging bother with saving coffee grounds any more then.
