A GARDENER has revealed the natural method you can use to keep slugs from nibbling at your favourite plants, and it's prime time to do it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The rainy weather typically draws out slugs, and many might find their way to your garden for a spot of lunch.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But fortunately, there's an easy gardening hack to stop them and you probably already have it in your kitchen.<\/p>\n

An avid gardener took to Facebook asking others for advice on keeping slugs at bay from her prized dahlias.<\/p>\n

The gardening whizz revealed she had tried a whole bunch of products to get rid of them to no avail.<\/p>\n

There was one hack that did the trick and she couldn't wait to share it.<\/p>\n

She wrote: \u201cI have to share this win – I can confirm garlic water instantly repels and keeps the slugs and snails away!<\/p>\n

\u201cI have not been able to get my dahlias to grow at all this year, as soon as there was a shoot it was eaten.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving a dog I needed pet-friendly options. I tried wool pellets, copper tape, gel, and midnight hunts but I could not get rid of them.\u00a0I made a garlic water spray once a day and it worked brilliantly. I'm just so pleased it works.\u201d<\/p>\n

Group members took to the comments to share their thought on this hack and many were in favour of it.<\/p>\n

Michelle Kelly wrote: \u201cBrilliant, this brings me much hope that the garlic spray I made earlier today will save my dahlias. I've lost so many already.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alex Duxbury said: \u201cI think I read once that was what the gardeners use at Buckingham Palace to look after their gardens and keep pests away.\u201d<\/p>\n

Deborah Davies commented: \u201cMy Dad tried mixing garlic paste with water this year and watering his hostas with it and yes it worked.\u201d<\/p>\n

Karen Quinn said: \u201cGarlic spray definitely helps on hostas but I hadn't thought to try it on the dahlias. Thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gardening expert over at the Guardian, James Wong revealed\u00a0Allicin is a defence compound created by garlic bulbs which both repels and kills slugs and snails. <\/p>\n

To harness this, simply put a bulb of garlic in a litre of water and blitz it in a food processor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Leave for ten minutes and strain and put into a spray bottle to mist over the plants.<\/p>\n

You can buy a bulb of garlic for 24p in Sainsbury's.<\/p>\n
