Keep animals and insects away from patio furniture
Once you’ve purchased the perfect set for you, the last thing you want are animals and insects ruining your outdoor furniture. There are a couple of solutions to keep these pesky animals and insects off your garden furniture.
the mistakes are gone
Flies buzzing around your head can distractingly interrupt relaxing time on your patio, and mosquitoes can nibble at your skin. An effective way to keep these pesky insects out is to purchase a zippered screen to place around your patio set. You can buy them at almost every store that sells patio furniture and backyard items. These nets come in different colors, shapes, and sizes to suit your taste and your needs.
Some nets are fastened with ties, while others are closed with a zipper. These nets allow you and your business to enjoy your outdoor furniture and beautiful weather without the hassle of stray animals and pesky insects. If you’d rather have a net that covers your entire garden rather than just a small section, they’re also available. If a net is too expensive for you, you can simply spray yourself and the furniture with insect repellent, but remember that insect repellents can cause harm to animals.
keep cats away
These pesky animals are especially bad at making a nice, comfortable bed on your furniture cushions. Leftover cat hair can be smelly and dirty. This doesn’t help keep your patio furniture clean and looking its best. Pet stores often have humane sprays that will safely keep cats away from getting hurt in any way. Cats can’t stand the smell of these sprays and will make sure to back away once they get close enough to smell it.
If you don’t want to use sprays, you might want to try a helpful home remedy. Cats hate aluminum foil, so just put some on your cushions to keep them away. On windier days, you may want to load the foil with a heavy object that won’t blow over.
Another way to keep these pesky animals away is to buy a dog. Everyone knows that most cats and dogs are natural enemies, and cats prefer to stay completely away from dogs. Although by having a dog you run the risk of having dog hair on your furniture instead of cat hair.
If a dog isn’t an option, bringing your furniture in at night is a definite way to make sure cats stay off the furniture. While this is an effective way to keep pesky animals out, it’s a lot of work and a little annoying, so a patio cover may be a better option.
