Don’t Spread Garden Pests or Disease

Would you be devastated to learn that you are the one who introduced a garden pest or disease into your beloved garden?

Many gardeners do just that as they tend to their garden plants.  Garden tools allow the gardener to bring contaminated soil, debris that may host pest and disease into the garden and often even introduce weeds into the garden.

The solution is to keep your garden tools clean. Simply knocking off the dried off clumps of dirt is not really cleaning garden tools, even though a lot of us are guilty of telling ourselves that they are because we’re tired at the end of a laborious gardening session.

Cleaning the garden tools isn’t a difficult task. The simple directions to make your garden tools clean and safe can be found in this article at www.FactGarden.com.

This spring, start out your gardening season right by using clean garden tools. After you have cleaned up the debris that accumulated last winter, clean the tools again. You never know what types of pest found a safe have in the debris over the winter. It’s not only important to destroy the debris, but you want to eliminate any disease, pest or other contaminates that have lingered on the garden tools after the cleanup.
