DIY lovers and those who like to repair things at home with their own hands surely have nails of various shapes and sizes in their toolbox. They are essential tools to restore many things.

At least once in your life, you have had to replace a nail because it is completely rusted and cannot provide the perfect support that it did before. This chemical process, completely natural and unstoppable, attacks any type of iron or metal. That is why it is so important to check the condition of the nails you use, especially if they are used to hold objects of a certain weight and value.

What to do with rusty nails Here’s a tip that will leave you speechless

The first thing that is usually done with rusty nails is to throw them away immediately, since they are useless. But what if we told you that they can be put to really ingenious use?

Although rusty nails are useless, they contain a very high percentage of iron. As you know, iron is a very powerful natural fertilizer. It keeps plants healthy and strong and prevents them from wilting too quickly.

What are these rusty nails for? Simply place them in the soil where your plants are and leave them there. The iron will penetrate the soil and become a natural fertilizer for your plants.

If, on the other hand, you have animals in the garden or small children, driving nails into the ground is not a good idea. In that case, fill a bottle with water, insert 4 or 5 nails and wait for the iron to transfer to the water. When it changes color, you can use it to water your plants and that’s it.
