Summer BBQs are a staple of the season, but they can also be a breeding ground for germs if proper cleaning isn't prioritized. Whether you're preparing for guests or cleaning up afterward, a few strategic wipes can make all the difference.
Pre-Party Prep: Surfaces You Might Forget

-
Outdoor Furniture: Wipe down chairs, tables, and armrests. Don't forget the undersides where dust and insects accumulate
