For example put in an entry into roots crontab which says

delete all items older than 30 days old from /root/tmp at 4AM on the
first day of each month.

Or put a similar command in /etc/bash_logout.

Putting the command in /etc/bash/logout would probably not make it
execute very frequently since it would need to wait until the user
logged out.

Personally, I tend to log out less frequently than I reboot - simply
because my last two reboots were courtesy of the Electricity company.
