I think we're too protected in our modern society. We've forgotten what was used for fertilizing a few centuries back. I'm not suggesting we should go to huge efforts to try this...it only makes sense if it's easy, economical and safe for a homeowner with big gardens. Imagine, what would be the harm for floral gardens that are strictly pretty to look at but not for eating at all?
