tulip tree, American linden,
flowering dogwood and
plum. You can wrap them
now, but be sure to take the
wrapping off late next
spring.
It’s best to use commerical
tree wrapping, starting at
the ground level and working
up the tree, overlapping
about every half-inch. Tie
the wrap with twine, but be
careful not to tie it too tight.
Smaller ornamental plants
can be mulched, but don’t do
this until there have been
several hard freezes.
Mulching will not keep the
soil from freezing but it
helps keep the soil frozen to
prevent root injury caused
by alternate freezing and
thawing of the soil. It also
prevents moisture loss from
the soil suface.
To Clean Pesticide
Equipment
Now that gardening
season has ended, do not
neglect to empty, clean and
properly store your spraying
and dusting equipment.
Never store equipment
which contains pesticides or
pesticide residues.
A thorough washing with
hot water and detergent is
best for sprayers. Be sure to
run the hot wash water
through the hoses and
nozzle. Make sure the
sprayer is thoroughly dry
before storing it in a dry
place. To assure drying and
reduce the chances of
rusting, lock the nozzle m the
open position to permit free
air movement. Addition of
automotive radiator rust
inhibitor will help prevent
corrosion during storage.
Inspect the parts, rubber
gaskets and valves.
Replacement parts might be
easier to find now than in the
spring.
Dusters should be emp
tied. Use the dust on the
garden or flowers in the
recommended manner or
return to original container.
Clean the duster well and oil
the moving pans. Again,
store in a dry place to
prevent rusting

discouraged from playing
with pesticide spray
equipment, even when it is
clean. Encourage children to
develop good habits around
spray equipment. Remind
them that sprayers are not
play toys. A sprayer which is
left dirty over winter will
probably not work at all next
spring. Some chemicals will
corrode the metal parts over
an extended period of time
and others will dry into a
clay-like consistency which
defies removal.
A sprayer which is given
good care now can last many
years and can result in a big
savings in terms of parts and
labor. Also saves
frustrations next season
when neglected equipment
probably won’t work
properly, if at all.
