1. Home’s Outside:

• Summer is usually a very dusty season (when weather is hot and dry), so you need to often clean your windows outside, including screens, and shutters (perhaps once per two-three weeks, or even oftener, depending on visual dirtying). Be watchful to not disturb possible bee, wasp, or hornet nests.
• Carry out pest patrol once a week: inspect your yard and garden for carpenter ants or termites which can spoil your house woodworks. Call the disinsectant service if you identify any signs of infestation;
• Clean outdoor decks, patios, walkways and driveways once a week. You can use special deck cleaners with push brooms or stiff brushes to scrub the decks. Asphalt driveways and concrete sidewalks can be cleaned with special detergents, scrubbed with push brooms, then thoroughly rinsed;
• Once per two-three days you may shower your asphalt and concrete surfaces with a help of your garden hose to lay the dust;
• Prevent garbage cans stench (perhaps once per two weeks): rinse the garbage cans with a hose, pour out the water, then spray with disinfectant, remain the cans for 10-15 minutes, then rinse one more time and turn upside down to dry.

• Dust off all your home electronics once per several days, as a lot of dust may stick to electrified surfaces;
• Vacuum all rugs, carpets, sofas, armchairs and cushions at least once a week;
• Often mop the floor, especially in your high-traffic areas;
• Wash all your mattresses at lease twice a year (in summer and winter);
• Dust off the furniture, shelves, radiators and window-sills at least once a week;
• Clean and prepare luggage and personal items to be packed for your summer vacation trip (see the Vacation Packing Checklist);
