Planting method\u00a0<\/h2>\n
One sure way to keep slugs away from your garden requires a bit of effort but will guarantee a more critter-free garden.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Planting allium vegetables such as garlic, onions, leeks and chives in your garden will repel slugs as it is extremely poisonous for them. Without a food source, slugs will likely move on to another area.\u00a0<\/p>\n
David suggested: \u201cPlant in some plants. Chive for instance planted on some of the borders. This produces Allionwhich if eaten by slugs and snails can be very toxic.\u201d<\/p>\n
Not only are they a good pest control, but allium vegetables are very hardy and can be planted in autumn before the first frost.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Slugs are sensitive to certain smells and the strong fragrance of coffee will discourage slugs from staying in your garden.\u00a0<\/p>\n Coffee grounds can attract insects such as earthworms into your garden which will loosen soil and help keep plants fertile. It can also keep other plant-destroying animals away such as ants and cats.\u00a0<\/p>\n However, it should be noted that this method must be applied often as coffee is water soluble, meaning it will be washed away when it rains.\u00a0<\/p>\n David said: \u201cThis last thing can be quite pungent and isn\u2019t a plant at all although it used to be, and that\u2019s coffee grounds. By sprinkling coffee grounds at least 12 inches from your plants, don\u2019t put it right up to your plants, just around the outside, it will act as a deterrent.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cNow just for that slugs and snails are scared that it will be something that will try them out but also the fragrance it gives off deters them too.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
