The local Starbucks has taken to packaging its used coffee grounds in 5-pound,

bag and took it home with my garage/estate sale finds. Now what? Do I dump it
around plants as it is or do I need to start a compost heap (in this 100+, 98
percent humidity weather the thought makes me cringe.)

I gather that it's a good slug barrier - and apparently cats dislike it.

cheers!
