Many people still prefer to buy live fir trees for the holidays so that their home can be filled with the incomparable aroma of fresh pine needles.
However, when the holidays are over, the trees are disposed of without regret.
At the same time, needles from a living spruce tree can be used in the household both as decoration and for more practical purposes.
How to Use Christmas Tree Needles
First, you can make an environmentally friendly cleaning agent using pine needles. Pour table vinegar over the branches with needles and leave for 3 weeks.
This product works great on stove grease, but keep in mind that it is quite strong. If you need more delicate cleaning, it is better to dilute the solution in a 1:1 ratio.
A used Christmas tree can be turned into a great pine sachet that will fill your closet with the scent of the forest.
And don’t forget that spruce branches are perhaps the best type of mulch and protection for tree trunks from rodent attacks.
