❄️Best Pond Care for a Healthy Winter❄️

Ken Lain, The Top 10 Gardener here! As temperatures drop, remember your pond! Fish and pumps are at risk when water features freeze.

Remove leaves and debris to prevent a toxic buildup under the ice, which can harm your fish.

A simple, affordable pond heater keeps a hole open in the ice, allowing for essential gas exchange. Don't forget to protect your irrigation valves and backflow preventers with a layer of mulch or heat tape.

This simple step can save you from costly repairs in the spring. Taking care of these often overlooked areas ensures a healthy pond and a worry-free winter.
