How about the gutters?
When we are talking about cleaning, we often think about the inside of our home, but it is just as important to take into consideration the exterior too and focus on cleaning the yard and gutters.
“Oftentimes, homeowners focus on the inside of their home during spring cleaning – but after a long, harsh winter, it’s important to evaluate the condition of the exterior of your home as well,” says Flax. “Gutters should be the priority. You want to be sure they’re clean and free of any clogs before the notorious April showers hit. Clogged gutters cause a number of issues throughout spring including water damage, mold, and rotting of your roof and siding, as well as providing a nesting area for squirrels, birds, and mosquitoes.”
