Clean little dead flies and other crap from the inside of the Mo home skylight remis blinds?
Did a search as I can’t believe nobody asked before, but probably put wrong question in search😄

I am in charge of cleaning the outside so will ask Brenda. Maybe you should ask Therese, as they know how to use vacuum cleaners Geoff. Just don't fall for the trap where they teach you how it's done, or it becomes your job from then on

Remover the internal surround and blind, probably eight screws.
The rooflight is stuck to the roof so the outside will stay in place.
A thought might be to take a hand help up to roof having closed the screen and hoover from above, think with windows wide open it would work, depending if you can reach across. I think I can from one side of our driveway, will try it after our next trip.

I’m 50+ years into my advanced hoovering apprenticeship so hope to to qualify soonish. Can’t reach from the side of the van into the centre to do them without going on the roof, and got to the age now where I don’t bounce very well!😁

Thanks ppj. Difficulty level? And would that involve reselling?
Easy enough to take down Geoff, but ideally takes a helper with the big ones. About a dozen screws to undo. Then you have the PITA of holding it up to screw back in place. No re-sealing needed as you don't take off the seal round the roof opening, just the inner blinds and frame

You do know Geoffs diy abilities don’t you.
