Default protecting table legs in the wet

I have a hardwood folding garden table. Where it stands is often a
bit wet, which means the wood at the end of the legs is likely to
start rotting.
What would be the best way of fixing something to the end of the legs
to protect them from the wet or the best way to seal them. thanks.


Not sure how deep the water is that the table has to stand in, but if it's
just a few mm, after Klara's suggestion, pilot & screw 3 brass screws in the
bottom of each leg but don't sink them in all the way.

The wood will be treated, the legs will be off the floor.
