Cobwebs, Cockroaches, Cleaning

You know what the best friend of a Gas Technician is? Cobwebs!

Now is the time as we are nearing summer to dust off the cobwebs and cockroachs and get the BBQ out! Just give your BBQ a light coat of mortein underneath and lets get ready for your first BBQ.

The do's and dont's………

DO NOT…point the garden hose at your BBQ thinking that a quick wash will solve all your problems as the reverse will happen, most these days have electronics for the ignitions and if these get wet you will be up for a new one.

DO….Just get a brush and some cloths and taking the plates and grills out just brush away the cobwebs and insects and start Barbequeing, its not that difficult….!
