These are the things to do in the garden in January: 5 priority tasks

An experienced gardener understands the importance of caring for the garden even in winter – he knows perfectly well that by doing so he is preparing for spring.

It's best to plan your work in advance, but the good news is that January chores aren't that labor-intensive.

We suggest making a short list of urgent tasks that can be completed in the near future.

Let us turn to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication Belnovosti and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

What can you do in the garden in January

Here are 5 options.

1. Inspection of trees and shrubs for pests. The hawthorn moth, goldtail moth, winter moth and ringed silkworm may go into wintering.
2. Protection against rodents. It is better to update baits or repellents.
3. Checking the shelters. It is important that they hold up until spring.
4. Shake the snow off the branches. You never know when a thaw will come.
5. Rake the snow up to the tree trunk circle. Do not let the root system freeze.
