The first official day of summer is June 20. That leaves you with a little while before getting the backyard ready for season of summer fun. Whether you have kids that will be spending their days back there or adult friends you want to entertain with dinner parties, there are some proactive steps you can take to make sure your backyard is up to the challenge of entertaining. Here’s what you can do:

Clean the Grill

When was the last time you used the barbecue grill? Was there a lot of smoke coming up from the bottom? That would be all the grease and gunk that is built up there from all your past grilling sessions. Before you start cooking this summer, it might be a good idea to give your grill a thorough cleaning. That means removing the actual grill and the plates that cover the flame broiler. This will let you get at the gunk and scrape it all away.

As for the grates, you can use the same kind of oven cleaner you would use in your kitchen oven. Just make sure you thoroughly wash them off before use again. A clean grill is going to make a big difference when it comes to the taste of what you’re cooking.

Plant Your Garden

If you haven’t planted your garden yet, then there’s still time to get blooming. You’ll find plenty of colorful flowers at your local nursery that are ready to place around your backyard. You could even dedicate a small corner to for a herb and vegetable garden. Even if you just grow mint, you’ll have a fragrant herb to add to drinks.

Take Down Old Playground Sets

This might be the summer that your kids have outgrown their swing sets, sandboxes and trampolines. Instead of cluttering up your backyard with those items, you should think about having them removed. This is the task you need to take on yourself. Instead, call up Junk King BucksMont for fast removal.
