Turkey tail fungus, while beautiful in nature, can leave unsightly stains on outdoor tables. To protect your table, start by applying a high-quality sealant or outdoor wood finish. These products create a barrier that prevents moisture and fungi from penetrating the wood. Regularly clean your table with a mild soap and water solution to remove any spores or debris. For added protection, consider using a table cover when the table is not in use, especially during damp seasons. If stains do appear, a mixture of vinegar and baking soda can help lift them without damaging the wood. By taking these proactive steps, you can keep your outdoor table looking pristine for years to come.
