Winged fruits, such as maple seeds or other tree droppings, can be a nuisance for outdoor furniture, leaving stains and requiring frequent cleaning. Here are some practical tips to protect your outdoor table:

1. Use a Protective Cover – Invest in a waterproof, UV-resistant cover to shield your table when not in use. Choose a snug-fit design to prevent fruits from slipping underneath.

2. Placement Matters – If possible, position your table away from trees that drop winged fruits. A covered patio or pergola can also reduce exposure.

3. Regular Cleaning Routine – Sweep or rinse the table daily to prevent sticky residue buildup. A mild soap solution helps remove stubborn stains.

4. Apply a Protective Coating – For wooden or metal tables, use a sealant or wax to create a barrier against fruit stains and moisture.

5. Try a Mesh Screen – A fine mesh or netting above the table can catch falling fruits while still allowing airflow.

By following these steps, you can enjoy a clean, damage-free outdoor table all season long!
