Do you throw away egg shells? Or do you clean them out, dry them, and use them for plants/compost?
Me ~ I am somewhere in between. I tend to use them as a natural fertilizer, pest control, and additive to compost. Sometimes I just rinse them out and gently rub the inside to help get rid of leftover egg, rinse again and let them air dry. Sometimes, they'll get "baked" in a low temp oven, 200 - 225 degrees for 20 - 25 minutes. Either way is important because it will deter animals that like raw eggs and help prevent various things caused by raw eggs. Below are the current round of shells drying off. Ignore the major need of caulking!
