Thanks for all the answers y problem of soot disposal!
If there is the slightest chance that it will keep slugs and snails
away
I will use it!!

I didn't see your original post but according to my late grandparents
you
can dig it into your soil to improve it and mixed with salt you can
clean
your teeth with it.

You can clean your teeth with just salt, but who wants to nowadays?

Sherpa Tenzing had one filling as a result of following that regime!

I've got only one without following that regime. I broke a tooth eating
crispy
bacon.
The Romans invented toothpaste but neither tooth brushes nor tooth paste
tubes.

They also invented the first loo paper which was a sponge on the end of a
stick. No thanks!

It must have been better than the alternative which seems to have been
nothing at all.
