Modern garden tools sometimes seem to last forever, despite their constant use.
But one cannot underestimate temperature changes and the impact of precipitation in winter even on metal parts.
Many summer residents know that under no circumstances should you throw or even just lean garden tools against the wall under the roof of the house.
Let us pay attention to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication Belnovosti and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.
What to do with garden tools in autumn
Even if you take into account the fact that garden tools are not the target of a thief, it is better not to leave them in the open air.
The iron will start to rust, the wooden handles will dry out, and the plastic parts will crack.
It is also important to clean the tool from the ground, drain the fuel from the equipment and wipe the elements with a dry cloth - then put the equipment in a dry place until spring.
It should be noted that in late autumn many stores get rid of excess goods by offering discounts.
