34. Protect Your Tools from Rust

Source: https://s3-production.bobvila.com/

Tools are great investments, which is why it’s important to take good care of them and keep them in excellent condition. 

Garden tools, most especially, are prone to accumulating rust. Their exposure to soil, moisture, scratches and dings make them vulnerable to oxidation that shortens their lives. Replacing them often can be expensive because tools aren’t cheap. It is far more economical to maintain them rather than discard them to buy new ones. 

One way to make equipment last longer is by spraying new ones with WD-40 can to protect them. Tools treated with WD-40 can last for up to 365 days without rusting, as long as they are kept properly, away from the elements, after use.
