Snails and ants are animals that you don't necessarily want to have in your own garden.

But you don't have to resort to chemicals to combat it.

Munich – Vegetables and fruit that have been laboriously planted for years are nibbled on within just a few days and the entire harvest is destroyed.

This scenario is familiar to many garden owners whose backbreaking work has already fallen victim to hungry snails and other animals.

But a very simple trick with a cheap household remedy can help and it is also very environmentally friendly, as 24garten.de knows *.

Punctured lettuce leaves and devastated beds are more than annoying, but fortunately there are natural remedies that can be used to drive away pests.

Against snails, aphids, ants and even pets that are curiously examining the bed, egg shells and a self-made snail protection are not the only things that work.
