Recycling Egg Shells

Can I recycle egg shells?

No, egg shells are kitchen waste, therefore cannot be recycled. They can however be added to your compost bin.

Re-use your egg shells

Egg shells can be used to make a wall around your plants to deter unwanted guests, snails, slugs and caterpillars. If you have kids, try using broken egg shells to make a mosaic, or if they are whole you could decorate them for easter.
