Crushed eggshells add calcium to your garden and help fend off slugs and snails, the presence of which can be determined to the health of your plants. Wash your eggshells, leave in sun to dry, crush into small pieces and add directly to your soil. Crushing them helps them to break down more quickly in your soil.
