Seven things you should never store in your shed

Paint, clothing and musical instruments have been named in a list of items which are particularly susceptible to damage and destruction if stored in outdoor buildings.

Garden gurus at BillyOh.com have revealed seven items homeowners should never store in their sheds, as the fluctuating temperatures conditions could cause rust, rot and decay.

Outdoor sheds are often used as the perfect storage solution, but there are many items you should store elsewhere if you want to keep them in tip top condition.

Whilelawn tools, gasoline, and outdoor furniture are fine to keep in garden buildings, you should leave canned food, photographs, and wine elsewhere.

A spokesperson for BillyOh.com commented: “There are two factors you should consider before storing something in your garden shed – temperature and moisture.

“Extreme temperature can damage a variety of items, and mould and mildew can render a lot of products useless quite quickly.

“It’s also worth noting that there are some products that can be stored if you choose to add shed insulation, humidity control, and apparatus to regulate temperature.
