Here are a few possible tasks that might apply to you.
1. Clean out the gutters. With leaves falling heavy this year from not only your own trees but neighbors surrounding you, those gutters can get clogged pretty quickly.
2. Rake those leaves. Get those leaf piles off the ground and onto the street for pickup. Leaf piles if left long enough can be new homes for insects, rodents, and in some cases other wildlife like snakes and foxes.
3. Make sure the HVAC is ready for winter. Does it need a maintenance inspection? Does it need cleaning out? Its your decision, only you can judge these things.
4. Be ready to store your garden hose and cover your outdoor faucet before any freezes occur.
5. Remove dead plants and or prune and trim.
6. If need be, have your chimney inspected, cleaned out, and well maintained.
7. Check batteries in carbon monoxide and smoke detectors.
Remember these are only a few maintenance items that can be done around your home. As always your home may vary and have a few less or a few more.
