Fall cleaning is much like spring cleaning. It’s the sort of thing we all totally dread, but we’re pretty darn ecstatic when it’s finished. Thankfully fall cleaning isn't the total nightmare spring cleaning is since most of us are too busy catching those summer rays throughout the day, leaving the house empty. Unfortunately even an empty house eventually needs maintenance & some tender loving care. Whether it’s cleaning the gutters or purging the walkin, there are some things you absolutely must do before the cold weather hits!

I have started doing a few things. I trimmed a plant yesterday. My husband finished the deck and we are starting to put away the patio stuff (tear tear) and I have begun removing clothing that doesn't fit my 12 year old. So we've got that happening. I need to do windows still and they are a mess. Plus I think we can use this Febreeze for a couple of areas.

It's strange because I don't really "spring" clean but I'm a cleaning maniac in the fall. The kids tracking dirt in all summer makes me go into high cleaning gear! Love the swiffer for our floors!

Fall is definitely my favorite holiday. I love my Swiffer wetjet. It's such a convenient, easy way to clean my floors. Love it!

Those were some great tips. Due to allergies I can't use too many scents.

Love the tips. The pumpkin scented Febreze is my favorite for Fall. I usually buy at least three in case it doesn't come out the next season.

I agree, we always have to clean the house every time we welcome a new season. Although there's not much to clean from the summer, it would still be nice to prepare for the fall. I am loving this list!

I love Fall! It is definitely my favorite season! I used to love using Febreze but one we don't have it in Norway and two since moving here I have found it just as easy to make my own. I am hoping I can help get some fall cleaning and purging done around here!

This Febreze and the Swiffer WetJet are indeed great to have as cleaning supplies. This new Fall reset scent I would not be able to use because my son is allergic to evergreen trees but I do love the other scents. Thanks for sharing this awesome products and giveaway.
