Coffee grounds--upon what?
If that seems creepy then wear gloves or use tools to
handle. The maggots are harmless to plants. BRBR And helpful in the normally agonizing debridement of badly healing wounds. That's right, folks--the old wives had some excellent remedies (if repellent to modern tastes.) Maggots only eat DEAD flesh--so the doctors who keep up on their medical reading are bringing them back, all laboratory bred and sterile, of course, when a wound won't heal or shows signs of going gangrenous. And of course you all have heard about the new/old use of leeches in microsurgery. Nasty looking creatures, but I'd rather feed a few leeches than lose a severed finger to the tiny blood vessels clotting up. The leeches' saliva keeps them from doing that. Oops. We were talking about gardening, weren't we?! zemedelec |
