As the warm comforts of fall and its vivid colors of summer transform into the mellow tones of autumn... we're getting close to sweater weather, pumpkin spice lattes, and the crisp aroma of changing leaves (sounds lovely...right?) 


Preparing your house for fall before you plunge headfirst into the season's delights is important. Not only can a tidy and organized living area improve the look of the room, but it also creates a comfortable and healthy environment for you, your family, and your mental health. Immaculately Maid recognizes the importance of a clean home, and we're here to assist you, here are four prep tips for fall!


Tip #1: Prep, Declutter and Organize to Prep The Home For Fall


Before you start getting excited, we first need to clear your home of clutter before you start cleaning. Go through your closets, drawers, and any storage areas to remove items you no longer need. Whether this means you donate or sell what you can and properly dispose of the rest, unneed items need to go. Organizing your belongings not only creates a neater space but also makes it easier to clean effectively.


Tip #2: Dust and Vacuum


Fall brings with it a new influx of dust and allergens as leaves and debris settle around your home... especially with children. When this happens, you need to dust all surfaces ( this includes shelves, baseboards, and light fixtures). You must also vacuum your carpets, rugs, and upholstery to remove dirt and allergens trapped in the fibers.


QUICK TIP: Don't forget to vacuum behind and underneath furniture, this packs the most dust and debris

Tip #3: Deep Clean Your Kitchen:


The kitchen is often the heart of your home, and with cuddle weather in the midst, it deserves extra attention. For this, you need to deep clean appliances (including the oven, microwave, and refrigerator) You also need to wipe down cabinets and drawers, paying special attention to handles and knobs. A clean kitchen is not only hygienic but also inviting for baking those fall treats!



Tip #4: Take Precautions for Pest:


As the weather cools, pests seek warmth and shelter indoors... Seal cracks and gaps around windows and doors to keep pests out. Consider scheduling a professional pest control service to prevent infestations. If you have children be sure they eat primarily on a table to avoid crumbs.

A clean and organized home not only enhances the autumn atmosphere but also ensures a healthy and inviting space for you and your loved ones.
