The beginning of December is a time when many owners of country houses relax.
After all, the summer cottage season has come to an end, and it would seem that there is no work to do in the garden or vegetable patch.
In fact, some actions still need to be taken even in cold and snowy seasons. For example, fighting rodents and removing snow from branches.
There is another important winter procedure. It is about removing dangerous "objects" from fruit trees.
An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh reminds that at the very beginning of December, every summer resident should carefully examine the plants in the garden and remove the following from them.
Fruit
Sometimes it happens that in the fall a summer resident forgets to pick some fruits from the tree.
By the beginning of winter, these fruits become dry and wrinkled.
Such “mummified” fruits must be removed immediately, otherwise the plant may be “attacked” by hidden pests.
Leaves
At the beginning of winter, the summer resident must make sure that not a single leaf remains on the trees and bushes.
If you do not remove the discovered leaf blades, the plant will certainly encounter diseases.
Web
In the first weeks of December, spider webs can be found on trees. This is a clear sign of the presence of dangerous pests.
The web needs to be removed immediately. In addition, it sometimes makes sense to use insecticides.
