Cedar fever and oak pollen coat DFW homes every spring — here's a room-by-room plan to stay ahead of it.
Why DFW spring cleaning is different
North Texas pollen season — cedar in late winter, oak and grass through spring — coats window sills, air returns, and outdoor-facing surfaces in a way that most parts of the country don't deal with at the same intensity.
Where pollen actually accumulates indoors
Window tracks and sills near frequently opened doors, HVAC return vents, ceiling fan blades, and any fabric surfaces near entry points. A standard weekly vacuum doesn't reach most of this.
How we adjust the checklist seasonally
Recurring clients get a seasonal checklist adjustment during peak pollen months — extra attention to vents, sills, and fabric surfaces — without changing your regular price or schedule.
