Spring officially sprung on 20th March and we’re so happy to be back out in the garden!

It’s a great time of year to tidy up and start getting ready for the longer evenings in the sunshine. Let’s take a look at what we can be doing out in the garden at this time of year.

Tidy up!
Your first step is to have a generally tidy round. We’ve had some unbelievable weather recently and if your gardens are anything like ours, they are in need of a good old spruce! Check your fences and furniture, it will have taken a bit of a battering over the last few months.
Grab your gloves and your garden bin and start clearing out those broken branches and leaves. Remove any weeds from your flower beds to give those Spring bulbs space to thrive!
Clean the garden furniture and make your garden habitable again ready for that Easter heatwave we’re all dreaming of. Our multipurpose, Ecofective Natural Anti-bac, is perfect for wiping down tables, chairs, bikes and scooters, or cleaning out playhouses so the kids can start using the garden again! It’s perfectly child and pet safe, without compromising on performance so you can clean without the concern.

Patio needing a bit more than a general sweep? Why not give our SPOT-ON Long Lasting Patio Cleaner Concentrate a go? Our hardworking formula removes algae, mould and lichen spores and is perfect for the patio and driveway for real, visible results.

Plan Ahead

It’s a good time to start visualising how you want your garden to look this year and order any summer flowering seeds and bulbs.
Plan where you’re going to put them and clear the space ready for planting, now.
Want your own mini meadow? Now’s a great time to sprinkle some wildflower seeds for a bit of bee-friendly beauty. Just make sure the grass isn’t waterlogged to give them a chance of germinating!

Consider Unwelcome Guests
It’s the time of year when the bugs and slugs come out and make gardening that little bit more difficult! But we don’t always want to kill them, just a bit of gentle redirection...
Ecofective® Slug Defence Plant Spray is a pesticide-free child & pet safe ready to use spray that contains nutrients to help plants grow. When sprayed onto plants it gives the plant an ability to withstand slugs or snails whilst ensuring they are all unharmed.
There’s plenty to be getting on with in the garden this month. Tag us in your photos – we’d love to see how you’re getting on!
