There&#8217;s heat and drought, plus lots of foot traffic. In addition, it&#8217;s also prime time for many weeds, diseases, and insects to make an appearance. However, there is good news. By taking some steps during the autumn season, you can help your turf recover and get into great shape for a dazzling comeback next spring. And at\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Southern Cape May County, we&#8217;re here to help. As a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/capemay-nj\/fall_lawn_care_tips\/\">provider of fall lawn care<\/a> in the Cape May, NJ area, we know all the moves you need to make in the weeks ahead, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mowing.<\/strong> If your grass is growing, it still needs mowing. So continue to cut until it goes dormant, being careful to keep the height at around three inches so it doesn&#8217;t get stressed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fertilizing. <\/strong>Fall is the ideal time to fertilize, giving your lawn the care and energy it needs to recover from summer and prepare for the cold, harsh Cape May winter ahead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Raking.<\/strong> Get those dead leaves off your lawn so they don&#8217;t create soggy, dark conditions where diseases and insects will spread.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Suppressing weeds. <\/strong>Take control over weeds before they get established with a pre-emergent treatment that suppresses autumn species, as well as spring perennials.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aerating. <\/strong>Loosen up soil that&#8217;s been compacted by heavy summer foot traffic and create openings that facilitate better nutrient, air, and water absorption.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seeding. <\/strong>Don&#8217;t let weeds and diseases get established in bare or thin areas. Instead, thicken your lawn with a healthy dose of seed so it can better fight off future attacks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Let\u00a0Cape May&#8217;s Fall Lawn Care Team Help<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A little bit of extra care and attention in the fall can make a big difference during spring.
