snail repellent
"John Savage" wrote in message om... | On the tv gardening program 'Vasilis Garden' on Ch 31 (a community tv | channel here in Sydney), the host described how to make a snail | repellent spray. | | He collected about 15 live snails, crushed them in a saucepan and added a | litre of hot water. This was boiled for 10 minutes, allowed to cool and | the liquid strained into a spray bottle. He then sprayed this liquid over | the foliage of garden seedlings and on the outside of pots, anywhere that | he wanted snails repelled from. | | I'm describing this in case someone with a snail problem cares to try it | and can let the rest of us know whether it works. I'm skeptical but open | minded. | | One final word: one of her good kitchen saucepans might not be the wisest | choice... | -- | John Savage (my news address is not valid for email) If you're talking about usual garden snails then they are edible. Putting them in a pan with hot water would make soup. Kimberly |
