By A Cultivated Nest Team

Easy Backyard Cleaning Hacks.

Whenever spring, summer, and fall are around you can always count on finding me either crafting or hanging out in the backyard. I may be crazy, but I actually enjoy cleaning my yard. I feel like after seeing the yard through the harsh, cold winters it looks dull and unappealing. But after some elbow grease and some time I can have it looking like a relaxing retreat! I can’t wait to show you these 12 Backyard Cleaning Tips so you can have everything sparkling clean in no time.

There are many areas to clean in your backyard, Often, it gets neglected because most of us don’t even think about it. Items like your grill, patio, and walkways all need a good cleaning now and again.

12 Brilliant Backyard Cleaning Tips

When cleaning your backyard there are a few things you want to keep in mind. I wanted to point out a couple of those tips before you get started.

  • Keep kids and animals away. Many of commercial yard cleaners may not be safe for pets and kids, so it’s best to keep them away while you are cleaning. Or at the very least do some research on all the cleaners to make sure they are safe. You don’t want your kids or fur babies getting sick.
  • Have a variety of scrub brushes, sponges, and old toothbrushes. It’s nice to keep a variety of these items around so that way you can be sure to clean even the smallest of areas. Don’t worry, you don’t have to clean the entire patio with a toothbrush, just tiny areas. 🙂
  • Do your research on cleaning solutions. If you are using anything that you purchase at a store that is a chemical, make sure you research it before cleaning. It may not be safe for every surface. The last thing you want to do is stain your bricks or damage your patio.
