Hi Homemakers, did you get a good laugh at my expense? Hahaha! No worries. When you are done here, check out my August Grocery Haul. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/7EsxlLMETYw/видео.html. If you've seen tht one then try this one where I am handling some kitchen clutter: ruclips.net/video/x8PGiuTA28k/видео.html
Yes I am sorry I did laugh when you are cleaning the bugs up! This is why I just spray my front porch down with the hose, although that does take a bit longer to do.I have a hard time just doing a portion of the porch each day. Sometimes things are all or nothing for me. I am trying to get over that though.
@@Myeverydaywifelife I knew people would laugh and think I was a wimp. It was funny to look at later but t the time...oh my goodness. Thank you so much for watching. I am looking forward to you coming on the show.
To get rid of the spiders, put some peppermint essential oil on a slightly damp cloth and wipe down all areas that attract the pesky bugs, especial the frames on the storm door and every nook and cranny where they like to hide (for that, I use a peppermint oil spray).
Hi Denise, I use a yellow light bulb in my front porch light in the summer. It keeps the June Bugs, Japanese Beetles and such away from my door. If I keep a white light bulb in my light fixture, the bugs are endless in the summer, as I am in South Carolina. Love your planner. Great idea to keep you on track. Thanks for your vlog.
OK lovely zone work, But Hope you schedule sometime to SIT on your beautiful porch!!! I am all about a cup of tea and sitting on the porch in the rain, very peaceful. No one deserves a nice break more then you and hard working hubby!
Hi Rosalind, welcome back. I always enjoy seeing you on the channel. Yes…zones make it so easy. Be sure to check out Flylady Kat. She explains the whole thing so nicely that it just makes sense. Her video Flylady for Newbies by Flylady Kat is amazing. Give it a try and let me know how it works for you,
Mrs. Denise you are so cute I feel the same way about the bugs, you hand gestures when you found them were so funny and you said Mr. Jordan please take them out and you will clean the window. Love this!
Hi Denise! I just found your channel and I enjoyed your video. My husband sprays/saturates the areas with Home Defense from Home Depot in all the crevices a few times a year and it helps to keep the critters at bay.
“I see you and I have a plan for you.” Brilliant! I get overwhelmed easily while cleaning because there’s always more to do than I think. I’m going to use this strategy. Thank you!
Love your videos. I enjoyed watching you fill out your planner. I don't use mine because I "have to decirate". I need to just use it. Please show us more of the practical uses of your planner.
Here in Arizona, I stay away from my front porch at all costs 😂Black widows, rattlesnakes and scorpions are the usual suspects here around the house. Luckily the area we live isn't too bad and we have a company coming over every year to collect the scorpions. It's impossible to get rid of them otherwise. The bug scene got me laughing, thank you Denise😊
I almost didn't watch this today because it was showing up as being live and I don't watch live videos if the RUclipsr is interacting with the audience. It stresses me out to hear all those hi Mary good to see you soon Etc. So I was very happy to see it was just a live filming. And I'm glad the subject matter was Zone cleaning. I really want to get into that.
Hmmmm. It’s good to know how some feel about live streaming. I’ll make sure to keep this in mind on my next live stream. I’m glad you do like the thought of zone cleaning. I’m going to try to show this for the month of August. If it proves successful, I may do more. How did you like the way I planned it and then showed each task on a different day in one video?
@@homemakingwithdenise you did an excellent job. And the reason that I watch your live show was because you did not look to see who was watching and welcome each person individually and all that stuff. So the type of live video that you did is wonderful. Do you have do you have a list of your Zone cleanings and what you do in each Zone? The only thing I do with the spiders is kill them when I see them, preferably stepping on them. But if it's one of those long-legged things outside on my porch and it's climbing up the wall or something I get the long-distance wasp spray out and drown them. I always have spiderwebs. I know I have some right now but it's so hot outside I don't want to mess with it. I really do enjoy your Channel. Keep up the good work.
Hi Missy, I enjoy them too. The melody is called peaceful melody. I believe they are ringing peace into my home. Sometimes, I just sit on the porch and listen. Do you have any wind chimes on your porch?
@@homemakingwithdenise Yes, I have a small set on my porch and also a larger one given to me by a friend when my mom died. Neither is very loud, but I like it when the wind catches them. I know it's odd, but I also have two in my family room. Obviously, there's no wind in there, but they're pretty to look at. 😊
Ahi, Denise you make it look so simple and easy Im getting motivate to clean mine. At least I know Im not the only one fighting with spiders haha. Thanks for the video
One suggestion for bi-annual cleaning is to find a softwash company near you. They chemical wash the whole house and it'll get rid of any green and outside dirt. Your concrete porch will look brand new. It's amazing what they do. If you have trees over your roof or black marks on the roof it will save your roof. Most people dont realize it's not just marks, its actually algae eating your roof. Buys your roof several years.
Yep, bugs love the light, spiders are smart and put there web to catch the light loving bugs. I spray some peppermint/water mixture in areas where I always get spiders, need to reapply when outside. I make in a small spray bottle and mist in corners and where I always see them. Good luck.
Marjorie, you are too funny…just like me. I don’t like the creepy crawlers but I love sweeping the porch. It’s so therapeutic. How did you like me showing all four tasks in one video?
Thank you for another cleaning With Me video far as the spiders you can either try some tea tree oil or you can get you some home defense and some Raid. that's what I do when I clean my patio
I like the tea tree oil. I’m really going to try to be more natural but I am not opposed to Home Defense. How did you like me putting all the tasks in one video?
Hi Denise💕 I just saw your Q&A with Nikki and fell in love with your channel and subscribed immediately! We have spiders here in Kentucky and I am petrified of seeing one. I’ve been bitten by the brown recluse while cleaning Fall leaves off our front porch. It’s one of our dangerous spiders. Our church custodian recommended something called Telstar. It’s a white milky liquid you mix with water and put in a sprayer. I spray all around the base of our home on the outside, the perimeter of our porches and I spray all around the inside perimeter of our garage. It works!!!! So happy to have found you💖
Linda, thank you for the spider remedy. It’s certainly worth a try. I’m glad you enjoyed the interview with Nikki. I must admit, I rather enjoyed it myself. What part was your favorite?
@@homemakingwithdenise oh my goodness I don’t think I had a favorite part, I love her channel. Both you ladies are so beautiful and are so far ahead of me right now in the decluttering, cleaning and decorating. I’ll get caught up now that I have a mentor. 💖
I rarely use a skewer as a skewer!! They make the best cleaning tool!! Spiders are an unending problem! They are so stubborn!! Aunt Fannie's has a spider spray too but I don't know how often it would have to used. I imagine it doesn't stay effective long outside!
Karen…I didn’t know Aunt Fannies had a spider spray! I like the ant remedy but spiders? I’m going to look for It. How did you like me showing all four tasks in one video?
@@HerHealthyHome Hahaha! I’m glad you were amused. I just couldn’t do it. Too nasty. Hahaha! And you had to call Francisco for a bug so I’m an not alone. I was a bit tired but pleasantly so when I got it done, it was nice to sit and listen to the birds sing. Do you use a planner?
Second comment: I thought I was the only one that dealt with spider webs on my front porch. I am so glad I am not alone. Mine needs to be cleaned. I think I will do it this weekend. Love your channel Mrs. Denise!
Hi Denise! Love your videos! You remind me of my mother, she kept our home spotless and was always a lady. I have the same problem with spiderwebs on my front porch. They creep me out too! Lol
Oh my do they ever creep me out and thank you. I think I like it that I remind you of your mother since you say that fondly. How did you like me showing all the zone cleaning in one video?
I love your zone idea, I’m going to try that method for cleaning my house. I don’t do the planner thing, I use my phone and set alarms and reminders . I believe that will work for me.
Love the idea of zone cleaning too. I get moths all around my door. My neighbors throw out moth balls to keep the snakes away, but I don't think it's environmentally safe,, nor does it look appealing. I need to do some research about keeping the critters away too, spiders, mosquitoes and snakes. Thanks for sharing!
I am loving this! Thank you. Love planning with paper and pencil. It also gets family involved. And that's again for reminding me of this saying " I see you and I have a an for you." I wrote it down and adding it to my Zone list as a reminder. ❤🧡💙
Yes Rose. You’ve got to remember that saying otherwise you can go down a rabbit hole. I see you and I have a plan for you. Paper and pencil planning just work for me. I’m glad you like it too. What’s your planner choice?
@@homemakingwithdenise I have a print out of my zones and it's inside of my a weekly planner. Not particular brand however it's 8x11 so I have lots of space. 👍I also have the page printed, placed in a sheet protector and posted on our fridge next to our menu calendar. Wet Erase marker there as well. So ever one can use it, not just mom!!😅
I think you might have to get something specifically for spiders. You also may need to sit out there more. You gotta let them spiders know that’s your porch not theirs! Enjoyed ya like always. Oh, and find something that can fill in those gaps in your doors so they can’t hide there.
I get ants by my front door. I just sprinkle cinnamon generously , they do not like. You can purchase the spray , but I just sprinkle. I am taking my tired summer geranium off my front steps today, and putting out my traditional chrysanthemum for fall to perk things up a bit. We are in fire season still, so will wash windows when the smoke clears.
@@homemakingwithdenise I'm enjoying all of your video s! I'm trying to get all the info I can on frugal living.... trying to get stocked up for a 6 month emergency food pantry...also trying to get and stay more organized.
I find it very hard to stop after 15 minutes. I just want to hurry up and get it all done at once, wearing myself out. I guess it's a self-discipline thing.
Hi Kelly, yes. That’s the thing…the Zone cleaning tasks for 15 minutes helps you develop the habit or routine of doing a little something each day. Sometimes, like on the corner of the porch, I took a little longer just to get it done and added in a couple of other things but I was exhausted when I was done. I had already done my inside work so this was on top of that. The discipline of stopping at 15 or 20 minutes is helpful. How did you like me showing all four tasks and the planning in one video?
We don’t have a spider problem because we have lizards. They take care of any bugs. I would much rather see the lizards than any type of creepy crawly.☺️
Too funny. It's so interesting what's native to various areas. Hahaha! My hubby said if you have lizards you probably have gators. He'd rather deal with the spiders. Do you have gators?
I think that is what happened they are attracted to the lights and they get trapped so they can’t get out Maybe Charlotte’s Web is live in on your porch LOL thank you for sharing your video
I’m glad you liked it. I felt silly at first…squealing like a six year old, but then I thought I might as well show it because ai was totally real. Hahaha! I supposed there could be worse things then Charlotte’s Web. Hahaha!
Hi Denise good evening how are you? Happy Friendship Day to you dear 🙂 and I liked watching your videos and I enjoyed watching your videos and I love you so much 🙂😀😊😄😁😘❤️💙💛💚💗💜 Please reply Thank you Vamsi
Oh yes, kiddie prints. The good thing is you have them to clean up. I love when my grandkids come. It takes a minute to clean them up but the fun of getting them there. Hahaha! Flylady Kat always talks about kiddie prints and puppy nose prints on the windows. How did you like the way I showed the different tasks on the different days?
@@homemakingwithdenise I like the way you tackled a job bit by bit. But those spider webs 🕷️🕸️🕸️🕸️😬🥺😲 I would turn that entire job to my husband. Maybe just hose down the whole porch. I also need my planner. If I don't write it down I don't remember to do it.
lots of spiders means there are a lot of bugs to eat. So...I'd rather have the spiders. Get some chickens in the front yard to eat the bugs the spiders won't have food...etc.. etc...
Um chickens? No. I wouldn’t want to deal with them plus they are not allowed in our neighborhood. I do like the birds though. They help deal with bugs in the back but not the front,
Girl you are working to hard. Go to home depot and buy...Home Guard spray it keeps everything away from the porch and is safe for pets after it dry. Is for exterior and interior. God Bless 🌹😷😷😷

A yellow light bulb? I will look into that. I didn’t know it could make a difference. The planner does help me sort things out.
Bugs give me the willies, hubby to the rescue. LOL When I clean spider webs I call it taking Halloween decor. TFS
Halloween decor. I love it.
Just as soon as you said zone 1, I knew!! Fly lady!

Love the organized cleans
How funny! I send my Hubby after all bugs and their remains too! EEK! I love that little broom. It is just perfect for quick sweeps.

Mrs. Denise, a good product for the algae on your front porch is Wet It & Forget It. You just spray it on and the algae goes away.
Oh…thank you. My husband was talking about getting something for that just today,. How did you like that I showed all the tasks in one video?
I get lots of spiders too this was a great video on how to handle zone cleaning. I do follow fly lady too. Your front porch is very inviting😎

We have spiders here in Kentucky and I am petrified of seeing one. I’ve been bitten by the brown recluse while cleaning Fall leaves off our front porch. It’s one of our dangerous spiders.

You’re the second or third person to mention peppermint oil. I’ll have to look into that. Thank you.
Your screen door need the rubber around it.Go to home Depot and get it .
OMG! Scared of dead bugs? How do you survive?
Husband to the rescue!
I’m a wimp and my hubby is always nearby. He comes when I need him. Hahaha!

Hi Vamsi, it’s always nice when you drop by. Have you started back to school yet?
Whew with those bugs, I would have just gotten a new storm door with no middle section, all glass!! Yuck!
😉
It doesn't matter how often I clean my front door, once my grandkids come over there are smudges all over.
Oh yes, kiddie prints. The good thing is you have them to clean up. I love when my grandkids come. It takes a minute to clean them up but the fun of getting them there. Hahaha! Flylady Kat always talks about kiddie prints and puppy nose prints on the windows. How did you like the way I showed the different tasks on the different days?
@@homemakingwithdenise I like the way you tackled a job bit by bit. But those spider webs 🕷️🕸️🕸️🕸️😬🥺😲 I would turn that entire job to my husband. Maybe just hose down the whole porch. I also need my planner. If I don't write it down I don't remember to do it.
Use Peppermint oil. Spiders don’t like it. 🙏
Lemon Juice stops Spider....
lots of spiders means there are a lot of bugs to eat. So...I'd rather have the spiders. Get some chickens in the front yard to eat the bugs the spiders won't have food...etc.. etc...
Um chickens? No. I wouldn’t want to deal with them plus they are not allowed in our neighborhood. I do like the birds though. They help deal with bugs in the back but not the front,
@@homemakingwithdenise good point, I am in the country so... chickens are a thing :) Well spraying may help if you aren't against that. Best of luck.
Maybe screening your porch will help with the yucky creatures.
Girl you are working to hard. Go to home depot and buy...Home Guard spray it keeps everything away from the porch and is safe for pets after it dry. Is for exterior and interior. God Bless 🌹😷😷😷
Trust me. I’m telling my hubby about this. I’m sick of the spiders. Thanks for the suggestion.
Love your videos. I enjoyed watching you fill out your planner. I don't use mine because I "have to decirate". I need to just use it. Please show us more of the practical uses of your planner.
