Zero waste uses for eggs, eggshells and egg cartons

Use eggshells in the garden to scare away slugs

Crush eggshells and scatter them around your garden’s vegetables and flowers to fend off hungry herbivores, such as slugs, snails and cutworms without using toxic pesticides.

Here are 6 more ways to control snails.

Use eggshells in coffee

Add some crushed eggshells to ground coffee before brewing it to make it taste less bitter. When you’re done, toss the grounds and shells on your compost heap!

Use egg cartons to make ice

You probably know to organise washers, screws, coins, twist ties, lost buttons and the like in empty egg cartons. But if you need extra ice for a party, fill the bottom halves of clean polystyrene egg cartons with water and freeze.

Here are more things around the house you should never throw out – and how to reuse them.
