#dahlia #slugsandsnails #eggshelsdontwork! Absolutely gutted. I've been so good with not using the blue pellets and I thought eggshells were largely working. Back to the drawing board I guess. #staysafe

I think you need to go for various barriers if you want to avoid using pellets. I heard people on here are using garlic spray but it's stinky or you can use a copper tape as well as the eggshells. Or add some wool pellets.

Heartbreaking 😔 I can recommend the wool pellets. They worked wonders when I used them to save hostas. Seen many people starting to use slug rings - https://www.slugrings.co.uk/

A month or two ago, I was watching a #sarahraven video on YouTube about dahlia cuttings. I thought, that seems simple, I'll give it a go. Absolutely chuffed to bits with these! #gyo #cuttings #staysafe

#dahlia had this for about 4 years, first time it's flowered! Worth the wait
