Black walnut tree sap
This might be a bit off the main track for gardening, but I am hoping some tree enthusiasts can help.
We have a black walnut tree growing against our back deck. (We live in an attached home). We like it since we do not have a lot of yard, most of the yard being deck. So having this tree snuggled up on the deck is great.
We do not mind the big walnuts too much. Yes, there can be a lot and they leave temporary stains. But the walnuts are easy to sweep up. It's the sap.
We moved into our house last year, so we missed the early part of what must be the black walnut tree season. Because this is our first year with the sap. It has coated the whole deck, all the furniture, leaves and insects stuck sap on the deck. I've read some methods with water and vinegar to clean off the sap. But we clean it once and then just get more? Hoping for any good advice on managing the sap fall/output so we can actually use our deck this summer!
I will note, we are not likely to tap the tree and not at the point of wanting to remove it yet. Thanks all!
