Tool cleaning in Honiton

### When Tools Get Put Away Dirty

End of season, you're tired, tools are covered in mud and you just chuck them in the shed. Come spring, everything's **rusty**, **handles are splitting**, and that expensive spade you bought is looking rough. An hour of proper cleaning and oiling in autumn prevents all that.

> 💡 **Pro tip:** Clean tools work better AND last longer. Rusty spades are hard work to dig with. Clean, oiled ones slide through soil like butter.
