The good news is you can minimize the risk before winter arrives with the right lawn maintenance steps. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Continuing to mow.<\/strong> Mow your lawn until the first hard freeze hits, which is when it stops growing. During the final cut, remove a little more than usual.\u00a0Ideally,\u00a0it should be around\u00a02 to 2\u00bd high. This length prevents seasonal stress and also helps ward off mold and bacteria that can settle into your grass.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cleaning off your lawn. <\/strong>Moisture can build up across your lawn during the autumn season. This makes it more prone to problems with discoloration and disease. Avoid this by cleaning up your lawn, including raking off leaves and removing any debris, like branches.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Preventing weeds. <\/strong>Weeds compete with your grass for nutrients, space and other important resources. Stop this process by pulling out weeds you&#8217;re seeing or spot treating them. For those seeds in the soil, apply a pre-emergent. This will stop them from maturing into full-grown plants that develop and spread in spring.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Serving\u00a0Cape May with Lawn Maintenance Tips &amp; Treatments<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Your lawn needs to be in strong shape to withstand winter stressors.\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Southern Cape May County can get it there with advice on best maintenance practices combined with customized treatments.
