Tips: - Clean and vacuum your sliding-door tracks instead of lubricating them. The lubricant will attract more dirt and cause problems later.
- Placing evergreen trees on the north and east sides of a house helps protect it from winter winds.
- Old sheets work great to cover plants and shrubs; they allow the plants to continue to breathe.
- Safety first: If the outside of your house is not very well lighted, consider painting the outside steps white so they're easier to see in the dark.
