Sprinkling crushed eggshells around plants creates a rough barrier that deters slugs and snails.

Adding clean, crushed eggshells to compost piles increases mineral content and provides calcium.

Empty eggshell halves serve as biodegradable seedling starters that can be planted directly in the garden.

Place broken eggshell pieces at the bottom of pots to improve drainage for potted plants.
