Keep hardwood floors clean by sweeping or vacuuming regularly to remove dust and debris. Use a damp mop with a gentle hardwood floor cleaner, avoiding excess water to prevent damage. Place doormats at entryways to reduce tracked-in dirt, and use furniture pads to prevent scratches.

Achieve streak-free windows by cleaning them on a cloudy day to prevent the cleaning solution from drying too quickly. Use a mixture of water and vinegar or a commercial window cleaner, and wipe with a microfiber cloth or squeegee. Dry the edges of the windows with a clean, lint-free cloth to prevent streaks.

Safely install holiday lights outdoors by using lights rated for outdoor use and checking them for any frayed wires or damaged bulbs. Secure lights with clips or hooks designed for outdoor use instead of nails or staples, and avoid overloading electrical outlets. Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) to reduce the risk of electrical shock.

Effectively pressure wash your deck by using a pressure washer with a fan or rotating nozzle at a low to medium pressure setting. Keep the nozzle moving in sweeping motions to avoid concentrating the water in one spot, which can damage the wood. Test on a small area first to ensure it’s safe for your deck material.

Keep ants out of your home by sealing cracks and gaps around windows, doors, and foundations where ants can enter. Keep kitchen surfaces clean and free of crumbs, and store food in airtight containers. Use natural deterrents like vinegar, lemon juice, or essential oils at entry points, and set up ant baits or traps to eliminate existing colonies.
