Few people think about this, but the “trick” is that garden figures also need care.
Otherwise, according to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , they will soon lose all their decorative properties, and sometimes may even become completely unusable.
Below you will find 5 recommendations that will help you organize the care of landscape figures according to all the rules.
1. Before installing a new decorative element on the site, it is recommended to cover it with varnish. Pay special attention to the bottom of the figurine.
2. It will be better for the product if you place it not just on the ground, but on a raised surface. This role can be taken by a stump, stone, paving slab, etc., which will protect the figurine from moisture penetration.
3. To prevent ants from building a home near the figure or right in it, apply a special agent to the bottom of the product that will repel these insects.
4. In addition, garden figurines should be treated with antifungal agents - it is unlikely that anyone needs to explain why this should be done.
5. Finally, do not allow the figures to stand on the site all year: instead, put them away for storage until the first autumn rains and cold weather begin.
