Typically, a lot of free waste paper accumulates in mailboxes. Do not rush to throw it right away, but do not turn it into annoying trash. Unnecessary newspapers and magazines can be useful to you both for domestic needs, and for creative pastime.
Newspapers and magazines to help summer residents
The accumulated old newspapers will come in handy in a summer house. They can be used to mulch the soil. In the dry period, lay out wet newspapers in several layers around plants and trees, sprinkle with mulch from bark or branches on top. Such protection will ensure long-term preservation of moisture in the soil and protect against excess weeds.
When wrapping newspapers, keep a small distance between the base of the plant or the trunk of the tree so that they do not rot.
Old paper from newspapers or magazines is suitable for lighting a stove or a bonfire. You can also make homemade firewood from it. Fold flammable paper into small bundles. Tighten tightly with hemp rope and stack in stacks on top of each other. The briquettes for maintaining fire are ready.
Fill wet country shoes with crumpled newspapers and put in a warm place. So you dry it without special dryers.
If there are large gaps in the old summer cottage frames, cover them with newsprint and putty for wood on top.
