Woah woah woah, don’t just throw those coffee grounds away! Did
you know every year in the UK we waste 500,000 tonnes of coffee grounds, it’s
quite ridiculous. At MF Products we have realised that coffee grounds have many
practical uses other than for cooking and drinking. Used MF Coffee grounds can
be used around the home and garden and can even help spruce up your beauty
routine to help ensure you look ‘fab’.
We’ve previously mentioned the way how MF Products have used
coffee grounds as fertiliser for their gardens so now it’s time to speak on what
else coffee can do aside from being used for consumption. Many readers aren’t going
to believe this however, MF Coffee grounds can be used surprisingly for your
pets too. Now I know there are many questions and queries however it’s true. Coffee
grounds can indeed be used for pets and insects. How? Let’s find out!
Fleas are a shared problem in household pets and treating
them can be expensive and time-consuming (trust me, we know the struggle).There
are several flea-elimination products on the market, but many contain punitive
chemicals and can yield unsolicited side effects. Luckily, it’s been seen by
the general public that coffee grounds seem to annoy fleas to the point where
they don’t like it. Another use of coffee grounds for your pet that you may
want to consider is using coffee grounds as a natural treatment. Simply massage
the grounds throughout your pet’s fur after shampooing. Then rinse them off and
allow your pet to dry as usual. Some say doing this may also add smoothness and
shine to your pet’s coat. Although, coffee grounds may be less effective than a
prescription product it is much cheaper to recycle old unused coffee grounds
rather than paying for actual treatment when there’s solutions here at home.
Secondly and lastly, Certain compounds found in coffee, such
caffeine and diterpenes, can be extremely toxic to insects and therefore will
contribute in getting rid of bugs and creepy crawlies. MF Coffee grounds are
effective at deterring mosquitos, fruit flies and beetles, and they may help
keep other pests away too. To use coffee grounds as an insect and pest
repellent, simply set out bowls of grounds or scatter them around outdoor
seating areas. You can also keep pests out of your garden by scattering coffee
grounds around your plants. This sprinkling technique can help create a barrier
that slugs, and snails do not like to crawl over.
In conclusion MF Coffee grounds have the ability to be reused in more suitable fashions, especially after being wasted or going slightly out of date.
