Spring is the perfect time to get outside and tackle those outdoor cleaning tasks that have been on the back burner all winter. Here are a few tips to keep in mind to make sure you get the most out of your outdoor spring cleaning:
- Assess the Damage: Before you begin your outdoor spring cleaning, it’s important to assess the damage from the winter. Look for areas of wear and tear and take note of any repairs that might need to be made. OR just pretend everything is fine and hope for the best.
- Tackle Debris: Get outside and start gathering all the debris the winter has left behind. Grab the leaves and twigs, anything that has wound up on the lawn, and all the items that have been left by the rain. Make a Game Out of Collecting All the Random Junk the Winter Left Behind
- Prune and Trim: Take this time to prune and trim any trees or shrubs that need attention. Make sure to trim back anything that is dead or overgrown, and remove any dead branches or leaves. Channel Your Inner Edward Scissorhands and Let Loose on Those Trees
