Porch Screen Maintenance
- Sweep and Dust Regularly: Sweep the floor daily and dust the screen, surfaces, windowsills, and door frames to prevent debris buildup.
- Seasonal Cleaning: Use a mild cleaner and a deck brush to scrub away grime. For tougher stains, use a 1:3 solution of oxygen bleach and water.
- Inspect and Repair Screens: Check for tears or holes seasonally and repair or replace the screen as needed to keep pests out.
- Reseal and Caulk: Reseal wooden components every six to seven years and touch up caulking to maintain the seal and prevent insect infiltration.
