which are being eaten alive by something. Any suggestions? My husband told me to sprinkle eggshells around the base of the plants, but I don't use enough eggs. It would be worth it, if I couldn't find something better, to use up a couple of dozen eggs anyway somehow. My greens' leaves are loaded with holes from some kind of pest that is eating them up.

And how about a natural, safe fertilizer? I'd welcome any advice. Thanks.:)
