House care in summer
During the summer is when you spend less time at home, since it is time to go out and enjoy yourself, so there is not as much time to dedicate to taking care of the house in summer.
However, precisely because of the heat is when more insects appear and bad smell can be created.
We are going to mention some aspects that can help take care of the house in summer.
Wardrobes
Heat and humidity are harmful because in places with high humidity they can cause mold to appear on clothing. In these areas it is good to open the closets at least for a while while the windows are open.
It would be advisable to clean the interior of the cabinets periodically to avoid unpleasant odors and dust accumulation.
Windows
It is good that the windows are opened every day, but at this time of year for longer, in addition to taking advantage, as we said in the previous paragraph, to open the closets.
With this act, the air in the house is renewed, in addition to helping to lower its temperature if it is done early in the morning or at the end of the afternoon.
Insects
Heat is the ideal time for insects, such as ants, flies and of course, mosquitoes.
It is very important not to leave food or food remains anywhere, as these will attract insects like a magnet.
Repellent candles can be used to try to prevent them from appearing.
Air-conditioning
It is important that before the heat begins to clean the air conditioning units, clean the filters, air inlets, grilles and condensation trays. This way you will extend the life of the device and also save on electrical energy.
Carpets
If you have carpets, th best is to clean them at this time, vacuum them well and store them for when the cold weather arrives.
Bathrooms
As it is the most humid room in the house, during the winter it is difficult to keep it dry, so you have to take advantage of the summer to air it well and carry out a deep cleaning.
Furniture
You have to pay attention to furniture that receives a lot of light because it will probably deteriorate, losing color and spoiling the material.
Si se puede, sería conveniente cambiarlos de sitio, en el caso de no poder, habría que intentar mantenerlos tapados durante el tiempo que la luz incida más. Otro truco que se puede utilizar es el colocar plantas que necesiten luz para colocarlas de forma que protejan los muebles.
