A home should inspire pride in you. It is where we seek refuge after a long hard working day and it is where we get together with loved ones, making cherished memories over meals, T.V shows and fun games, but the home is meant to be taken care of as well to ensure that you get the best kind of home you need. Yard work is a joy to others, a source of serenity and bonding with nature, but for some it is tedious and sweaty and unrewarding. But, still, it must be trudged through because you love your home. Here we have listed a few places to look to keep your home presentable.
1. Gardening
The garden is a great place to start to try and spruce up your yard and there is no better way to begin than by mowing. Mowing your yard not only gets rid of long overgrown grass, but it also keeps the pests like mosquitoes at bay because long grass traps a lot of moisture which can be a suitable breeding ground for them. The next step is weeding, which involves pulling out unwanted flora. Weeds are notorious and can ruin the scenery of your home from the window. Try using weed killers in your paved path walks if your weeds are peeping through the cracks. For the weeds among the plants themselves I highly advise pulling them out by hand to avoid ruining your flowers and plants.

2. Cleaning the roof
The roof is a harder one to get to, but you can ring up a service to clean it. The roof collects dead leaves and twigs, sometimes plastics and ash and other unwanted objects that can get into your home through your windows. The gutter Malaysia should be thoroughly swept to make sure there are no blockages. Leaves and twigs can disrupt the flow of rain when it falls and damage the roof gutters if it has no exit route. If you own a chimney, try to get it cleaned over the year as well by professional chimney sweepers, because just like the gutter it can become clogged with birds’ nests and other foreign bodies that may be destructive to your home.
3. Wet areas
Taps are an important area to keep a lookout. If they are leaky it can cost you money, so check your taps regularly to ensure that there are no leakages. A second thing to consider when cleaning up the yard is wet areas that are sometimes by these taps or in low water-collecting areas. There is nothing wrong with a bit of dampness, but more water can be a breeding ground for mosquitoes and invite other pests. Furthermore, if the walls are prone to moisture there may appear moulding which can weaken your paint job, and some mouldings can be dangerous to your health.
