Lawn Care Tips In Fall

There are several lawn care tips that you must follow when it is time to prepare your lawn and garden for fall and winter. Fall maintenance for your lawn should be considered as preparing your lawn so that it can sustain the harsh and long winter months. Just like you get your home ready for the winter by performing several checks on equipment like heating you must start your fall maintenance by checking the present condition of your yard.

There are several treatments that you may need before you start your regular work of fall maintenance, but it depends on the health of your lawn. Weed control, crabgrass control, insect control and core aeration are some of the types of services that you may or may not need to take care of your lawn. Whether you need these services or not completely depends on the current health of your lawn.

Even for the lawns that are in good shape and condition, many professionals recommend some treatments such as overseeding and core aeration. These two treatments should be done together since core aeration makes the efforts of overseeding successful. Core aeration helps in soil unplugging, which increases your efforts of weed control. Once you are done with this process you must consider overseeding which makes your lawn look full and lush during spring.

Good soil is very important for overseeding. You can find the best soil at any big stores. But, it is important to verify the quality of the soil although you can find a good quality soil at these stores, sometimes a huge bag of soil for a couple of dollars, the quality of such soil may be very low. The risk you run here is that you will introduce weeds, disease, insects, and pests in your yard that could come with this cheap soil.
