Write a shell script to delete the files you want deleted. Then, write a line in your cron table, to run the script when you want it to run, automatically. Read man cron and man crontab. You can even have a line in the script that sends you an email, each time the script is run, and more lines in the script, creating a nicely formatted report, which files were deleted, etc., to include in the email. My servers email me web server logs, email logs, general system information and insecurity reports every morning, so they arrive on my Desktop machine every morning, about the same time I have had enough coffee, so I am awake enough to understand what I am reading.
