How to easily collect needles from a Christmas tree without a vacuum cleaner: a useful life hack
Many people leave their holiday trees until the Old New Year.
By this time, the trees usually have already shed a lot of leaves, which means that it is too difficult to remove them without a vacuum cleaner.
But there are a few tricks that make the task easier.
As experienced housewives note, fallen needles can be removed with adhesive tape, scotch tape or a lint brush.
This was reported by the publication NEWS.ru with reference to specialist Fyodor Vasiliev.
He also reminded that you should avoid using a vacuum cleaner during such cleaning. There is a risk that the pine needles will clog the hose and damage the equipment.
Vasiliev reminded that it is easy to deal with resin stains that may have been left by wood.
He emphasized to the men that regular alcohol or an antiseptic based on it will do the job.
Vasiliev advised not to leave the tree on the carpet, otherwise you will have to spend a long time getting the needles out of the pile.
He added that it is much better to initially place the tree on a polyethylene mat - this way it is much easier to remove dry needles and the tree itself.
