Cleaning services, lawncare, termite expenses allowed for home office deduction?

I thought there was a more comprehensive list provided in the past for allowed expenses for the home office deduction.  Specifically, I'm curious if maid/cleaning service, lawncare, pest control expenses can be deducted?
