Summer has finally arrived!
Warm summer nights, BBQs with friends and long walks outside. As you make the most of summer don’t forget to keep your home and garden in top condition.
In the Garden
- Uncover that patio furniture and break out the grill!
- Check your deck and fences for loose nails, replace rotting boards and reseal if needed.
- Deadhead and add a little compost to your veggie and flower beds. Enjoy those veggies!
- Water, water, water.
Around the House
- Clean the windows inside and out.
- Get your roof inspected and any moss removed.
- Clean out your dryer vent (you don’t want any beasties climbing into a dryer vent whose flap is open due to overflowing lint).
- Repaint, chipped, peeled or faded paint.
- Test your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and replace as needed.
