Summer is finally here, and with the sunshine comes longer days, outdoor activities, and… more dust, allergens, and creepy crawlies! At Scrub A Dub Cleaning Club LTD, we know how important it is to keep your home looking and feeling fresh – especially when the warmer weather can trigger allergies or invite unwanted guests inside.

Here are our 5 top summer cleaning tips to help you enjoy the season in comfort:

1. Harvest the Benefits of a Summer Declutter

Summer is the perfect time to clear out anything you no longer use. Lighter evenings and brighter days make it easier to tackle cupboards, sheds, and garages.

Remove old or unused items and donate them to charity.
Store away winter gear to free up space.
Wipe down shelving and storage bins to avoid dust build-up.

Why? Less clutter makes your home easier to keep clean and creates a calming, fresh space to relax in.

2. Beat Hay Fever with Allergen Busting

Hay fever can make summer miserable, but a few simple cleaning hacks can help:

Vacuum more often, especially around entryways where pollen collects.
Wash curtains, cushion covers, and bedding regularly.
Use a damp cloth to wipe down window sills and frames where pollen settles.

Pro tip: If you can, dry laundry indoors during peak pollen days to avoid allergens sticking to fabrics.

3. Keep Spiders at Bay

Warmer weather means spiders are on the move, but you can deter them naturally:

Dust and vacuum corners, ceilings, and behind furniture regularly to remove webs and eggs.
Wipe down window frames and doorways with a vinegar-and-water solution – spiders hate it!
Avoid leaving crumbs or open food out, as this attracts insects (spiders’ favourite snack!).

4. Refresh Your Home with 100% Essential Oils

Swap chemical-laden air fresheners for natural alternatives:

Add a few drops of lavender, eucalyptus, or lemon essential oil to a spray bottle with water and mist around your home.
Add oils to your vacuum filter or mop bucket for an uplifting scent as you clean.
Use a diffuser in high-traffic areas to keep the air fresh all day.

5. Stay on Top of Outdoor Areas

Summer means more time in the garden, so keep those outdoor spaces clean too:

Sweep patios and decks to remove dirt and moss build-up.
Wipe down outdoor furniture with warm soapy water.
Clean BBQs thoroughly after each use to prevent grease and pests.

A clean outdoor area makes summer entertaining much more enjoyable!
