Rosemary Mint

How can I protect my plants and herbs from slugs and other pests?
I’m trying to be green fingered in the garden and reverse my history of wilting everything I try to grow.. but how can I protect my plants without using nasty chemicals? Especially for my herb pots – I don’t want to be putting anything nasty on them when I plant to eat them. Last year my poor mint plants were savaged by slugs. This year I’m growing sage, mint, thyme, rosemary and basil and lots of lavendar.
egg shells
its as simple as that
i grow herbs, small amounts of vegetables and strawberries etc
just outside the kitchen door i keep a wee pail and everytime i use eggs i rinse the shells and pop them in there
when i have a need, i take them, crush them in he pail and sprinkle around the pots and earth,
i use no chemicals at all, ever, egg shells create a diatomaceous barrier, lime also works but not so good for some plants, grow rosemary and lavender abundantly also helps, slugs hate the smell of both and wont venture near where its grown, i do grow both but stick with my trusty egg shells hasnt failed me yet, ask a few neighbours or friends to keep them too to get you started, few people have a use for them anyways, and if you have an abundance thrown them in the pot when re planting, does the soil good too
