another thing slugs and snails dont like is coffee grounds round the base of the plant.

The only other known use of coffee grounds is in India, where its used to mop up puddles of elephant wee.

Also some people will vouch for crushed egg shells, finely crushed welsh slate and even piles of human hair..........
