As the weather warms up and you start opening windows to let in that fresh spring air, there’s one small detail that makes a big difference — your window screens.
At Deroo Fine Homes, we’re all about the little things that help your home work better. Here’s why making sure your screens are installed (and in good shape) is key this season:
1. Keep Bugs Out, Let Breeze In
Screens are your home’s first line of defense against mosquitoes, flies, and other pests. Before you pop open those windows, double-check that each screen is snug and tear-free.
2. Inspect for Damage
Winter weather can be rough on screens. Look for any holes, loose frames, or warping that might’ve happened during the off-season. A quick repair now can save you from bigger issues later.
3. Clean for Clear Views
Screens can collect dust, pollen, and debris. A gentle rinse and wipe-down will make your windows look sharper and help air flow more freely.
4. Reinstall with Care
If you removed your screens for winter, now’s the time to put them back. Make sure they sit securely in the frame — loose screens can rattle in the wind or fall out altogether.
Pro Tip: Screens are easy to overlook, but they help you enjoy the season comfortably and pest-free.
