11 Reasons to Hire a Cleaning Service in Katy, TX

Feel like your Katy home has looked so horrifying for so long that you don’t even remember the last time you actually liked the look of your home? Are you hesitating to call a cleaning service because of your uncertainty that you can handle it yourself? It might be time for an intervention. There are a number of valid reasons that one would need a Katy cleaning service or even simply gain enjoyment out of it. Here are 11 that will help you determine whether or not a cleaning service for your Katy home could be the solution for you.

Reason #1: It’s difficult to maintain work-life balance

If you are struggling to find work-life balance, a cleaning service could help to remove a few stressors off of your plate. How can you think clearly about what needs your time and attention when you’re sitting in the middle of a dirty home?

Reason #2: You have a busy family life

You knew it would happen eventually or, maybe you didn’t. At one point in time, it was a lot easier to balance multiple schedules but now it seems like you are being pulled in five different directions. Hiring a cleaning service in Katy for your home would help to ensure that you have a clean, stress-free zone to gather in.

Reason #3: You like to entertain a lot

You love having fun gatherings at your home and whether you chose to invite a couple of people or have an entire party, the preparation and aftermath can take a lot out of you. Allowing a Katy cleaning service to be the hands and feet that clean up before and after the event can give you more time to rest up!

Reason #4: You have a newborn

When your newborn baby arrives home, the last thing you want to do is be worried about the vacuuming and dusting you have to do. When your home is nice and clean, the only thing that will need your attention is the baby.

Reason #5: You want to treat yourself

Long nights and early mornings add up, making you feel completely drained. Taking the task of cleaning off of your to-do list, whether for a weekend or for a month, can do wonders for your mental and physical health.

Reason #6: You want to make more time to actually enjoy your home

Whether you have kids or room with others, when all you do at home is clean then you have defeated the purpose of a home entirely. Sure cleaning is essential to maintaining a home, but is it really “maintaining” if you never get to relax at home? Allow a cleaning service to take this task off of your hands.

Reason #7: You’re tired of cleaning the same messes over and over again

There are some things you just get tired of having to do repetitively. Common areas and bathrooms are most notorious for needing constant tidying and upkeep. If you’d like to take a break from the cleaning cycle, a cleaning service will do just the trick.

Reason #8: You aren’t sure how to properly clean something

Certain areas in the house can stump you. Maybe you’re unsure how to tackle a certain area of the house or you’ve never had to clean a certain feature before. When you hire cleaning service professionals, they know how to effectively clean various areas of your home so you don’t have to worry about it.

Reason #9: You are preparing for a vacation

There is a lot involved in preparing for a vacation whether it’s by yourself or for your entire family. If you don’t feel like you have enough to worry about already, a dirty house can make everything feel 10x more stressful. When you hire a cleaning service in Katy, you can leave and return to a spotless residence.

Reason #10: You are selling your home

When your house is ready to appear on the market, clean lines and well-kept rooms are bonus points that can give your home buyers a lot faster and sometimes that are willing to pay a lot more. A good presentation can elevate the value of your home.

Reason #11: You are having family stay at your home

Who doesn’t love it when family comes over? The last thing you want them to see during their stay, however, is all of the neglected places in your home that you never have the time to clean. Have a cleaning service over before your family’s stay and make sure your home is in tip-top shape for your relatives! A good cleaning service strives to subtract the list of things to do on your plate by giving you a nice, clean space to work and reside in.

Maintaining a clean home does more than ensure it looks nice, but it affords you the ability to devote your time and energy to other more important things. Here at Westside Maids, we offer an entire suite of cleaning services to homes in Katy and the surrounding areas. With over 20 years in business, we are consistently providing detailed and thorough cleanings no matter the size and scope of the project.

The Best House Cleaning Services to Get During a Winter in Katy TX

The Best House Cleaning Services to Get During a Winter in Katy TX

During the winter time, a lot goes on in a household. The holidays typically inspire seasonal decorating which means glitter and feathers are bound to get scattered about. Dust easily accumulates from the decorations that tend to reside in the attic most of the year. This dirt is somewhat managed in between dinner parties and all of the holiday hostings there is, but there are areas in a home where dust can easily accumulate. As a cleaning service in Katy, we have serviced many homes and while dust and dirt are prevalent in every season, we have a few services that are particularly valuable around the winter time. If you need help deciding what cleaning services to get during winter in Katy TX, consider this blog post your winter house cleaning checklist.

Clean Refrigerator & Ovens

We love to gather around good food during the holiday season. All of that oven and microwave usage can certainly make a lasting impression. Oil, grease, and food particles can make these beautiful appliances look worn-out or stained very easily if they aren’t cleaned soon after. Our Katy maids clean both the inside and outside of these appliances to remove oil, grease, and all of the hard-to-clean spots to have your kitchen appliances looking as if they were never used during the holidays.

Clean Bathroom Cabinets, Fixtures, Vanity, Sinks, & Mirrors

One of the least enjoyable features of the winter is the virus’s that tend to spread around. Whether you are constantly running around from here to there during the winter or home for holidays, having your bathroom fixtures and features disinfected and thoroughly deep cleaned by your Katy maids here at Westside Maids lessens the chance of you contracting or carrying any of those viri. Not to mention, there is nothing better than a winter in which you can take a soothing hot bath in a squeaky clean bathroom.

Under the Sinks and Inside the Drawers

One of the most neglected places of a home when it comes to house cleanings tend to be underneath the sink and inside if the drawers. While they typically undergo day to day usage, they are one of the last places considered when it comes to cleaning a home. When you really consider how many times they are used, you quickly are reminded of how valuable it is to keep them clean. We clear out these areas, disinfecting and scrubbing to ensure they look as good as new.

Dust Window Sills, Shelves, and Wood Ledges

There is nothing worse than attempting to warm up in a home practically encamped by dust, unaware. Window sills, shelves, and wood ledges are among the easiest places for dust to accumulate and rather quickly. During the winter, with all of the indoor activity’s that happen, it is especially easy for dust and lint to attach themselves to surfaces like these. Whenever we clean a Katy residence, this is one of the most important things we can tackle as dust particles can get in the air and cause unnecessary health issues if not tackled.

Vacuum Carpets, Rugs, and Wash Floors

Whether you like to entertain a lot around the holidays or prefer to stay cooped up indoors, dirty floors will make a very clean home appear to be messier than it actually is. While you may or may not be tracking the dirt from the outdoors into your home, there’s nothing that can top off a cleaning as nice, clean floors can. Allow our thorough Katy maids to vacuum carpets, rugs, and wash your floors for you even in your bathrooms and common areas. We’ll be sure to leave your home looking and even smelling brand new!

Where to Begin?

That is completely up to you! Here at Westside Maids, we offer a plethora of services and are able to be booked according to your preferences. Schedule multiple services in one cleaning or scheduled several cleanings according to what best compliments your schedule. Contact us to enact house cleaning services that give you a nice, clean Katy home to stay warm in this winter!

House Cleaning Services to Implement this Fall

chron@digitalproductsuite.com — Mon, 15 Oct 2018 18:30:00 GMT

House Cleaning Services to Implement this Fall

Have you ever noticed that some things are easier to clean in one season than they are in another? Take sweeping for example. You’re likely to have a lot less to sweep in your kitchen after spending the day in the city than after a big season-themed potluck dinner at your house. The same kind of logic applies to the cleaning schedule of your home.

There are some areas that naturally require more attention in the fall than in the spring or summer. Luckily, our cleaning crew caters to custom cleaning schedules suitable for all seasonal changes. If you want to ensure that your house maintains cleanliness throughout the fall season, you might want to take a look at investing in the following cleaning services.

Deep Clean of Refrigerators, Ovens, Microwaves, & Stovetops

Because the holiday season consists of tons of events and gatherings, you will likely be spending more time in the kitchen. With all of the treats coming in and going out of your kitchen and with all of that coming and going, it’s easy to unintentionally create a kitchen that looks… exploded. In order to ensure that through all of that cooking, hosting, and food take-out, you have a kitchen clean enough to handle it all, adding regular maintenance of the refrigerator, oven, microwave, and stovetop ensures that everything stays copasetic.

Deep Clean of the Air Vents & Fans

It’s common for allergies to flare up around the cooler seasons. Dirty air vents and dusty fans can make these allergies feel worse when unattended to. While it’s already important to make sure that your air vents and fans are maintained year-round, you might want to make sure that you maintain regular air vent and fan cleaning during the fall.

Deep Clean of the Baseboards & Walls

Whether you like to host a lot of gatherings in your home or you prefer to stay in, it’s important to tackle the dust and dirt that easily accumulates on the baseboards and walls of your home. Giving the baseboards and walls a routine cleaning can help to ensure that your home is clean from the bottom to the top.

Deep Clean of the Windows & Mini Blinds

With the cool fall weather settling in, it’s natural to want to let some of the fresh air in the house. Doing this can invite dirt particles to settle on your blinds or windows. If you live in a region that contains a lot of humidity, that dirt can easily turn into mold. If you want a clean window to gaze out of, regular window and mini blind cleanings can work wonders for your vision and the overall cleanly appearance of your home.

Front & Back Porch Cleanings

If you have furniture on your front or back porch, fall is the perfect time to invest in getting routine porch cleanings. With the leaves mounding on the ground and wind that scatters all of the dirt, staying committed to a routine front or back porch cleaning can work wonders not only for preserving your porch furniture, but for maintaining an overall clean front and backyard appearance.

House Cleaning in the Fall

This fall, maintain a clean home with the help of Westside Maids. Rather than attempt to stick to a cleaning schedule this Fall, we’ll handle all of the services mentioned above as often as you would like us to. Enjoy the fall weather and festivities while also enjoying a clean home. For more information on forming the perfect fall cleaning schedule for you, contact us today.

5 Places You Forget to Clean (Hint: They’re Hidden in Plain Sight)

chron@digitalproductsuite.com — Tue, 10 Jul 2018 18:30:00 GMT

5 Places You Forget to Clean (Hint: They’re Hidden in Plain Sight)

Westside Maids acknowledges that sometimes the easiest place to overlook is the place right in front of you. How many times have you found yourself looking high and low for a lost item all to realize that it was in your hand the entire time? The same thing can happen with cleaning. At Westside Maids, we eliminate these cleaning mishaps with our keen attention to detail. Our cleaning service tackles even the most forgotten about places in your home.

Hidden Place #1: The Cabinets

Some of the most real things in this world are the things that we can’t see. Luckily, our cleaning service is pretty adamant about the cleanliness of this particular area. It may not be obvious depending on the look of your cabinet, but grease, water stains, and even food traces can wind up on your kitchen cabinets making for the perfect place for dirt and grime to build up and hang out. Should you neglect to have your cabinets cleaned for too long, this can change the look and feel of your cabinets over time. We happily remove all dirt and grime from the surfaces of cabinets, elongating their use and beautiful appearance in your kitchen aesthetic.

Hidden Place #2: The Air Vents

It’s something you use almost every day and yet it is one of the most forgettable places to clean for most, but not for Westside Maids: the air vents. Considering the air we breathe is a necessity, the cleaning of this particular spot is pretty important. Dust particles, hair, and pollen build up in the vent overtime which can taint the air you breathe. While it may seem slightly pre madonna-like, there is such thing as bad and good air. In having your air vents cleaned by us, you guarantee a clean freshness in the air you breathe.

Hidden Place #3: The Baseboards

One of the more tedious deep cleaning services that we offer is the baseboards. There is a reason for our attention to this area! If you don’t forget about cleaning them, surely they are a task you’d prefer to procrastinate on. Your baseboards add to the overall look of your home. If your baseboards are dirty, your home is bound to appear the same. Conversely, if your baseboards are clean your home is likely to appear in a more pristine condition. We gladly provide baseboard cleanings that leave your space looking spotless.

Hidden Place #4: The Light Switch Plates

Light switches are a touch-and-go fixture in the home. We have seen quite a few in our practice, both cleanly and uncleanly. It’s easy for us to spot which ones have been kept up with and which ones have been neglected. The treatment needed for light switch panels is often the same as the treatment needed for door knobs. They need to be disinfected from time to time. We make sure to tend to this area and eliminate the unseen dust and dirt that builds up in this area.

Hidden Place #5: The Ceiling Fan

Similar to light switch panels, ceiling fans are often neglected and Westside Maids is all too aware of this. Over time they can build up mounds of dirt, dust, and grime. By the time this happens, though you may not notice it, you are practically using dirt to fan your space. We put an end to the practical sandstorm cause by your fan through disinfecting and clearing this area thoroughly so you can enjoy breathing fresh and clean air.

At Westside Maids, we are proud to tackle area’s like these to ensure that the livability of your home is maximized, as well as your health. Our deep cleaning services tackle forgotten area’s like these and more hidden spaces in your home with precision so you are left with a clean home you can ease your mind and relax in.

Return to a Clean Home After Vacation

Return to a Clean Home After Vacation

Excitement and stress both have the potential to overwhelm you as you prepare for your oh-so-awaited vacation. There is plenty to sort out, organize, and pack. It can be hard to maintain a decent-looking house in the middle of all of the vacation planning and organizing.

Considering there is a lot to think about during the days leading up to your trip, it is the perfect time to schedule a cleaning. Westside Maids provides residential cleaning services to residents in Cypress, West Houston, Katy and Northwest Houston and can provide you with a spotless home to return to after your time away. We ensure that when you arrive back at your abode, you are greeted by a home that invites you to easily slip back into your normal day-to-day life. Here are a few of the services we offer that, combined, could give you the perfect post-vacation home.

Clean Bed Sheets

There is nothing better than returning home to fresh, unadulterated bed sheets. Give yourself the freedom to indulge in a deep and peaceful sleep in sheets that will probably smell even better than the ones at your hotel.

Clean Bathrooms

You don’t want to have to do it when you come back. When the post-vacation exhaustion kicks in you’re going to want to make sure that your bathrooms are spa ready- because after all, that’s the kind of treatment you’re going to want when you get back.

Swept Floors

This erases the potential encounter with unwanted visitors (the creepy crawly kind more specifically) when you get back.

Mopped Floors

To remove the dirt that can’t be swept up. What could be better than that gorgeous pristine gloss on top of a freshly cleaned floor?

Clean Kitchen

We offer both refrigerator and oven cleaning. That way, when you get home you won’t have to worry about unloading or loading anything. You also don’t have to worry about making food in a dirty-looking oven. You will have one less thing to accomplish on your to-do list and you’ll have the cleanest slate of a kitchen to work with.

Trash

The less things you need to accomplish when you get back, the better. Your trash shouldn’t be inviting unwanted peasants into your home.

Dusted Furniture

Over the course of your trip, dust can accumulate on your tables and furniture making for yet another unwanted task added to your list of post-vacation-to-do’s. Let us take it off of your hands and allow you to enjoy clean surfaces without having to put in the work yourself.

Vacuum

This one is intentionally at the bottom of the list. A well-vacuumed space is like the cherry on top to a clean space and can give the entire space a pristine look.

If you live in the Cypress, Katy, West or Northwest Houston areas and would like Westside Maids to help reduce your to-do list, we clean kitchens, bedrooms, do dusting, and anything related to these pre-vacation or post-vacation cleaning tasks.

Fighting Pet Allergens with Cleaning

chron@digitalproductsuite.com — Mon, 02 May 2016 18:30:00 GMT

Fighting Pet Allergens with Cleaning

Indoor allergens such as dust mites, pet dander, mold, and cockroach droppings can trigger allergy and asthma symptoms in millions of allergy sufferers. Carried in through the air, allergens can be found on furniture, floors, and other surfaces around the house. While no home can be completely allergen-free, thorough cleaning on a regular basis can help reduce the number of allergens to which you’re exposed. Try these 4 tips for minimizing indoor allergens, and breathe easier from now on.

Dusting Efficiently

One of the best ways to control indoor allergens is by getting rid of dust. That’s because dust mites — the most common trigger of asthma and allergy symptoms inside the home — thrive in dust. But be aware that dusting can actually make things worse by kicking up allergen particles into the air. Use a damp or treated cloth that attracts dust rather than scattering it, and consider wearing a dust mask when cleaning. Also, try to minimize clutter in your home, since it tends to collect dust.

Vacuum Frequently

Vacuuming — especially in areas that accumulate more dust, such as carpeting and furniture — can help control allergens in your home. But as with dusting, vacuuming can also send dust particles into the air and cause problems for anyone with a dust mite allergy. Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter, which can trap small particles and prevent them from spreading into the air. Try to vacuum at least once or twice a week.

Wash Linens

Dust mites tend to thrive in bedding, pillows, and throw rugs. And since we spend so much of our time in the bedroom, it’s especially important to reduce allergens there. At least once a week, wash pillowcases, sheets, and blankets in very hot water — at least 130 degrees — and dry them in a hot dryer to kill dust mites. Also, encase mattresses and non-washable pillows, comforters, and other bedding in allergen-proof covers.

Carefully Choose Cleaning Products

Many harsh chemicals found in common household cleaners can aggravate or trigger symptoms in people who have allergies and asthma. If you are sensitive to allergens, switch to green, environmentally friendly cleaning products, which have natural and plant-based ingredients. Fortunately, there are many options today for people who are looking for green cleaners. You can also make your own natural products using ingredients such as vinegar, baking soda, and lemon.

Healthy Cleaning Tips

Healthy Cleaning Tips

Keeping your home clean is important to keep you and your family in a safe, organized, and pleasant environment, but it’s equally important to ensure that your cleaning process is healthy for you! In the hustle to take care of tasks, you may be tempted to overlook precautions when you’re cleaning, but here are some tips to help you stay safe while you’re looking after your home:

Rubber gloves are essential to protect your skin when cleaning with any type of chemical, especially those containing bleach. Harsh cleaning chemicals can irritate your skin, dry it out, and can even lead to burns. Plus, you can keep your hands away from any unsanitary grime by using a pair of rubber gloves.

Protect your lungs by wearing a breathing mask and using open ventilation during cleaning. Everything from bleach to dust can irritate allergies, carry toxic elements into your body, and even cause permanent damage.

Be cautious when using stepladders or full ladders for cleaning. Sometimes you need a boost to reach high shelves, ceiling fans, or the top of a closet, but a fall from even a few feet can lead to a serious injury. If you can, always have a spotter with you in case you should stumble. Never stand on a surface that’s not completely stable, and never face the handles of a step-stool behind you.

At Westside Maids, we always use safe cleaning methods to ensure the safety of our staff. If there are cleaning tasks in your home, enlist the help of professionals with years of service in cleaning homes throughout Katy.

Keeping Clean Between Westside Maids’ Visits

chron@digitalproductsuite.com — Thu, 19 Nov 2015 12:35:35 GMT

Keeping Clean Between Westside Maids’ Visits

Walking into a clean home is one of the greatest feelings in the world. Unfortunately, that feeling gets quickly dampened when a few days brings your home back to a cluttered mess. With a few simple tips, you can stave off the mess and keep your home tidy until your next visit from Westside Maids.

Pay Attention to the Main Rooms

Don’t overwhelm yourself by trying to keep every room spotless. Prioritize certain rooms that see the most use, such as the kitchen, dining room, and living room. That way your home will be clean as soon as you walk in, and you won’t have to stress about visits from guests.

Break Up the Cleaning

It’s easy to get burned out by trying to clean everything at once. Instead of saving everything to do at once, just a few minutes of cleaning each day can maintain your home in between deep-cleaning from Westside Maids.

Find a Place for Everything

Clutter can quickly take over a clean home, making everything messy in no time. By assigning a place for everything, from mail to office supplies, you can make it much easier to keep clutter out of the picture.

Keep Dirt from Reaching Your Floors

Vacuuming and mopping are time consuming, and you can cut down the need to maintain your floors by stopping dirt from even reaching them. Take off your shoes when you enter your home, and use mats at entryways to keep mud, dirt, and allergens from getting tracked inside.

If your home just keeps getting out of control too quickly, consider scheduling more frequent cleaning from Westside Maids. We’re happy to work around your schedule to ensure that your home stays sparkling! Contact us today to learn how we can free up your schedule and reduce your stress.

Using a Maid Service to Tackle Your Pet’s Mess

chron@digitalproductsuite.com — Tue, 13 Oct 2015 12:29:30 GMT

Using a Maid Service to Tackle Your Pet’s Mess

Keeping a home clean and organized is a challenge in any situation. Add a pet to the mix and you’ve got an even tougher time managing the mess. Between dogs tracking dirt onto the floor and cats leaving hair on every surface, pest come with their own hurdles to a clean home require time and energy to combat. A cleaning service can make the task less overwhelming.

Keep Dishes in Check

Dirty dishes can tempt your furry friend to get into trouble. Between eating food not meant for your cat or dog, they can also send plates crashing to the floor. With a maid service, you won’t have to worry about managing any dishes that threaten to pile up.

Don’t Let Laundry Pile Up

Pets can lead to a lot more laundry to deal with. With cats that love to sleep in piles of clothes and leave cat hair wherever they go, you may find yourself facing a big surge in laundry. Not to mention, you may find yourself using blankets, towels, and washcloths to mop up after spills and messes. A pet is already a big investment of time and energy, so leaving your laundry to a maid service can save you a huge amount of stress.

Floors Stay Clean

With dogs and cats bringing dirt, grass, and all kinds of messes in from outside, your floors are likely to get dirty quickly. To keep pet hair under control, vacuuming regularly is a necessity. Couches, dog beds, and other furniture will also need to be vacuumed, or allergens can build up and make the air within a home unhealthy. To ensure that these tasks are not overlooked and you don’t become overwhelmed by them, enlist the services of professional maids who can quickly take care of everything for you.

Reduce the Stress of a Pet

Adding a pet to your daily mix can be a real handful, especially if you’re already caring for children. You don’t have to shoulder the stress on your own. Let a maid service lend a hand in keeping everything under control.

7 Summer Cleaning Tips

chron@digitalproductsuite.com — Thu, 06 Aug 2015 04:00:00 GMT

This is a subtitle for your new post

Among the busy days and vacations of summer, it’s important to keep your home clean and ready for the upcoming school year. Summer is a great time to clean out certain areas and keep everything fresh. These warm weather cleaning tips are a great way to stay ahead of your schedule.

Clean Your Grill

If you own a grill, you’re likely to use it during the summer for a barbecue or just a tasty meal. Be sure to clean it thoroughly, removing the grates and using an oven cleaner. Bacteria can build up over time and thrive in the summer heat if any food particles are left inside after using your grill if it’s not properly cleaned.

Flip Your Mattress

Avoid a buildup of dust and mites by flipping your mattress twice a year: once in the winter and once in the summer. Vacuum the surface of the mattress and box spring before flipping it to keep it fresh and free of allergens.

Clean the Air Conditioner

Your air conditioner is probably working hard during the summer, and it’s important to maintain it by cleaning or replacing the filter, as well as cleaning the coils and vents to help it more effectively keep your home cool during summer and remove allergens. You’ll keep it from working harder and save yourself some cash from your electricity bill.

Refresh Your Luggage

You might be travelling on vacation this summer, but even if you don’t it’s a good idea to clean out your luggage. Vacuum any suitcases thoroughly and use a solution of vinegar and water to remove any lingering musty smells.

Use Floor Mats

Placing floor mats in front of your home’s entrances will help dirt and mud from outdoor summer excursions from being tracked into the home. Remember to clean these mats regularly to minimize the pollen and other allergens from lingering.

Clean Seasonal Items

Take the time to clean out those items that see frequent use in the summer, such as pool toys, beach balls, and other water items. This is also a great time to clean your patio furniture, such as chairs and umbrellas. This will keep things fresh for upcoming gatherings and keep the work from piling up at the end of the season.

Clean Windows

Pollen and bugs are likely to collect on your home’s windows during the summer. Even if it’s too warm outside to enjoy an open window, cleaning the surface of windows and glass around your home will reduce allergens and maintain a fresh appeal.

6 Tips to Keep Your Home Cool in the Summer

The summer can bring some days of intense heat, and combating triple-digit temperatures in your home can be difficult, even with the help of air conditioning. Luckily, there are some simple steps that you can take to cool off your home and fight the negative health effects of an environment that’s too hot.

Keeping doors open will allow air to flow and cool your home more easily. This includes both bedrooms and bathrooms, so avoid closing any doors that aren’t necessary.

Cooling your home is easier with fans

Use fans to increase circulation, especially in areas that tend to warm up. You can also place a bowl of ice in front of the flowing air to create a cool breeze or use ceiling fans to increase airflow even more.

Keep blinds and curtains closed as much as possible, especially on the sunny side of the house. This will keep your home insulated and keep the windows from heating everything up.

If possible, cut down your oven use , as cooking on a gas stove or baking in the oven produces a lot of heat. Grilling outdoors is a great alternative, or just focusing your diet on cool foods like sandwiches, fruit, and salads. These will keep you healthy and reduce the need to heat your home by cooking indoors.

Change out the sheets and blankets on your bed for cooler options, as well as fighting off allergens that accumulate during the warmer months. Avoid flannel or down, as these insulate heat. There are also a number of cooling items that you can place in your bed to keep your pillow or feet chilled.

Even if your apartment is warm, you can feel much more cool by sipping on cool drinks . Smoothies, lemonade, and iced tea are delicious choices to keep you hydrated and cooled down.

These simple tricks will help you keep your home and your family cooler during the summer without straining your electric bills while your air conditioner tries to keep up. From increasing air circulation to keeping yourself physically cooler, you can help your home and family stay more comfortable and healthy during the summer by keeping the inside temperatures down and tackling high temperatures head-on.
