“This will keep the bugs away,” she predicted.
Her next tip involved outside water supplies. “Replace your old hose spigots,” she said.
“We swapped both of our spigots last spring with this aquor wall hydrant,” she wrote. She said hers came from Amazon.
“Best decision ever,” she said. “This piece acts as a key draining the entire pipe once it’s unplugged.
“I never have to go to the basement again to turn the water on and off.”
Next, she tackled the dry patches under the children’s swings. She had another easy solution.
“Grab a few cheap rubber mats to throw under there,” she said.
Finally, she found a way of using old kitchen sponges that would benefit potted plants.
“Cut [them] up and place them in the bottom of your planters. This will prevent root rot and keep your soil moist longer.”
