Here in sweden were I live we have a problem around curches with copper roofs. The plants around them die. As you might now you can use a littel copper spiral as a birthcontrol thingie. The egg and spirm can not grow in an enivironment with copper.
Copper is pretty toxic if it is placed in the right (wrong) place.
Just a thought about the eco-friendliness.
But anyway everything is harming and building this earth so I dont wanna be an inspration killer:)
