6 Ways to Beat Jack Frost and Break Out of the Winter Doldrums

Most of us have been facing a pretty tough winter this year, with ice as far south as Louisiana and Texas, and the Northeast and Midwest buried beneath a never-ending blanket of snow. The sheer frustration of dealing with the slick roads and frigid weather can make you feel like just chucking it all and hibernating with a cup of hot chocolate until April. Read on to discover 6 ways you can beat winter and get ready for spring!

But there are lots of ways to make your job easier this winter. Efficient snow removal will save you time and energy, keeping your furnace happy will keep you warm and save you money, and indoor gardening and home improvement will keep you productive and alleviate cabin fever.

1. Discover Smart Snow Removal

Snow removal seems to be a daily chore for many of us lately. Choosing the right snow removal method for your needs will save you time, energy, and maybe even injury, and will help you stay on top of things instead of getting buried.

This article will help you get informed, so you can pick the best way to conquer the white stuff.

2. Use Winterization to Beat Winter and Keep Your Home Cozy

The extremely frigid temperatures we’ve struggled with this winter have us all wishing we’d never heard the term “polar vortex”. Such extreme temperatures can drive your heating bill sky-high.

Use these tips to keep your furnace healthy so it can keep your family warm, and protect your home with this key winterization info. Your wallet will thank you!

3. Beat Winter Allergies

There are plenty of viruses going around this time of year, and it’s tough not to get sick. Simple practices such as getting plenty of rest and washing your hands frequently are your best bet for staying healthy.

But if you find yourself sniffling and sneezing all winter, winter allergies might be to blame. From “green” dust mite repellant spray to OTC antihistamines, knowledge is power when it comes to feeling better and silencing the sneezing.

This article gives you the best ways to reduce the big 3 winter allergens: dust mites, mold and pet dander, and improve the air quality in your home.

4. Grow a Winter Garden

Even if you feel like you’re living on a frozen tundra, that doesn’t mean that your green thumb has to hibernate. This article shows you 4 ways that you can enjoy gardening during the cold season, including planting a windowsill herb garden.

This article gives you the lowdown on starting vegetables from seed indoors this winter, and this one shows you 4 gorgeous flowers that you can start from seed indoors. Keep on gardening, and get a head start on spring!

5. Master Indoor DIY

Being stuck indoors is enough to drive anyone a little crazy. Indoor DIY projects alleviate cabin fever by giving everyone something to do, and leave you feeling accomplished.

Better yet: the results you get will make your home a more pleasant place to be. This can be a pretty big deal when you’re spending so much time inside.

Bigger projects such as installing new flooring or new kitchen countertops can increase your home’s value. Smaller, inexpensive projects such as a room makeover or new storage for your bathroom will improve your home’s atmosphere and function.

Even something as simple as these easy no-sew curtains can really spruce things up. These easy home improvement tips will help you keep the hassle to a minimum and handle your project like a pro.

6. Defeat Indoor Mold & Mildew

As you and your family spend more time indoors to stay warm, you really notice indoor messes. This can be soap scum and mold and mildew in your bathroom and black mold in your basement. Indoor mold and mildew can destroy walls and other materials, and can have a serious impact on the air quality in your home.

A clean home is a comfortable home, and Wet & Forget helps you keep it that way with no elbow grease needed.
