much-awaited season of the year. The rain is calming, the greenery is lush and the ambience is beautiful. And of course, there is nothing more heavenly than sitting in your balcony and sipping on ginger tea and snacks. This splendid weather lasts in India from July to September, relieving the people of the scorching summer heat. But it also has its downsides and these can take a toll on your house, resulting in lasting damages. So, here are some easy-to-follow monsoon care tips for your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disinfectants_Are_A_Must\"><\/span>Disinfectants Are A Must<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"512\" height=\"341\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1.-Disinfectants-are-a-must.png\" alt=\"Disinfectants are a must\" class=\"wp-image-6749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1.-Disinfectants-are-a-must.png 512w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1.-Disinfectants-are-a-must-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1.-Disinfectants-are-a-must-450x300.png 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption>Source: Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The humidity and excess moisture allow all species of bugs and insects to breed in the crevices of your home- cockroaches, leeches, flies, and more. The possibility of sickness and bug-bites becomes very high. Hence, it is crucial to use disinfectants to clean your house. Keep your floors as dry as possible and thoroughly scrub any or all cobwebs that you may find hanging in the corners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check_for_Leaks\"><\/span>Check for Leaks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2.-Check-for-Leaks-1024x682.png\" alt=\"Check for Leaks\" class=\"wp-image-6750\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2.-Check-for-Leaks-1024x682.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2.-Check-for-Leaks-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2.-Check-for-Leaks-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2.-Check-for-Leaks-450x300.png 450w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2.-Check-for-Leaks-780x520.png 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Source: Pixabay<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>There will be innumerable cracks and crevices hidden all through your house, plus small slits along the walls and ceiling. Bloating on the walls is the most common sign of broken internal and external pipes. These need immediate fixation if you want to avoid water dripping on your head and prevent mould growing on walls.

One of the easiest and effective hacks is to place the books on shelves and cupboards and shut them in tightly with a box of moisture absorbents. Place alongside it some naphthalene balls, this also keeps away any foul smell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keep_The_Drains_Unclogged_And_Vicinity_Clean\"><\/span>Keep The Drains Unclogged And Vicinity Clean<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/4.-Keep-the-drains-unclogged-and-vicinity-clean-1024x682.png\" alt=\"Keep the drains unclogged and vicinity clean\" class=\"wp-image-6752\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/4.-Keep-the-drains-unclogged-and-vicinity-clean-1024x682.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/4.-Keep-the-drains-unclogged-and-vicinity-clean-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/4.-Keep-the-drains-unclogged-and-vicinity-clean-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/4.-Keep-the-drains-unclogged-and-vicinity-clean-450x300.png 450w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/4.-Keep-the-drains-unclogged-and-vicinity-clean-780x520.png 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Source: Pixabay<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The heavy rainfall brings with it chunks of debris and silt, often clogging up the drains. The excess moisture also becomes a breeding ground for mosquitoes and other insects, and subsequently, rodents as well. Make sure to keep your drains clean and unclogged. Sprinkle bug and rodent repellent for extra measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Waterproof_Your_Roof\"><\/span>Waterproof Your Roof<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Waterproof your roof\" class=\"wp-image-6753\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof-450x675.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof-780x1170.jpg 780w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5.-Waterproof-your-roof.jpg 1067w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><figcaption>Source: Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Our roofs bear the brunt of torrential rains. Therefore, you should thoroughly examine your roof before the incoming monsoons and repair any damages that may result in seepage if left untreated. Scrub and clean your roof and then use an effective waterproofing agent such as MasterSeal, Krytonite or Dr. Fixit to prevent rainwater from seeping in through the crevices. These agents also prevent the growth of moss along <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/choose-right-wallpaper-for-your-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the walls<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Avoid_Fungus\"><\/span>Avoid Fungus<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/6.-Avoid-fungus-1024x693.png\" alt=\"Avoid fungus\" class=\"wp-image-6754\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"\/><figcaption>Source: Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Monsoon is the season wherein fungus and mould thrive promptly. Therefore, it is essential to identify and fill all the gaps that may become a home to them. You can use putty for the same. This includes gaps in the door hinges or windows. Bathrooms are the wettest places in our homes. In order to prevent fungus growth, fill up the gaps and cracks in the floor and wall tiles before the advent of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wrap_Up_Rugs_And_Carpets\"><\/span>Wrap Up Rugs And Carpets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/7.-Wrap-up-rugs-and-carpets-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Wrap up rugs and carpets\" class=\"wp-image-6755\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/7.-Wrap-up-rugs-and-carpets-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/7.-Wrap-up-rugs-and-carpets-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/7.-Wrap-up-rugs-and-carpets-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/7.-Wrap-up-rugs-and-carpets-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/7.-Wrap-up-rugs-and-carpets-780x520.jpg 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Source: Pixabay<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Monsoon season is not the time for rugs and carpets, however aesthetic they may look with your d\u00e9cor. Wet footwear and moisture-laden environment encourage the growth of mould and moss, making way for a foul odour. Therefore, it is better to wrap them up and put them away for three months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Umbrella_Stands\"><\/span>Umbrella Stands<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/8.-Umbrella-stands-1024x682.png\" alt=\"Umbrella stands\" class=\"wp-image-6756\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/8.-Umbrella-stands-1024x682.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/8.-Umbrella-stands-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/8.-Umbrella-stands-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/8.-Umbrella-stands-450x300.png 450w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/8.-Umbrella-stands-780x520.png 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Source: Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most convenient hacks for the monsoon season is to get an umbrella stand for your home.

You don\u2019t need heavy curtains to block the limited sunlight that pours in through the windows. So, wrap them up and replace them with lighter, more translucent curtains, preferably in bright colours that give a nice hue to <strong>your rooms<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_Shades_On_Windows_And_Balconies\"><\/span>Use Shades On Windows And Balconies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/10.-Use-shades-on-windows-and-balconies-1024x682.png\" alt=\"Use shades on windows and balconies\" class=\"wp-image-6758\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/10.-Use-shades-on-windows-and-balconies-1024x682.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/10.-Use-shades-on-windows-and-balconies-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/10.-Use-shades-on-windows-and-balconies-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/10.-Use-shades-on-windows-and-balconies-450x300.png 450w, https:\/\/www.zadinteriors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/10.-Use-shades-on-windows-and-balconies-780x520.png 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Source: Pixabay<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Windows and balconies are the easiest way for water to pour in during torrential rains in this weather.
