This will minimize issues with diseases and discoloration, and pave the way toward a healthier return in spring. Some practices to follow include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lowering your mower blades.<\/strong> Before the final cut of the season, lower the blades on your lawn mower and cut grass a little shorter. Aim for a height around\u00a02 to 2\u00bd inches. This is long enough to prevent stress, while short enough to\u00a0stop mold and bacteria from settling into the grass blades.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cleaning up your lawn.<\/strong> If there are leaves over your lawn, they will\u00a0create a wet, matted layer that blocks out sunlight. They\u00a0also trap\u00a0moisture, creating excellent conditions for diseases and pests to make a home. Avoid this by cleaning off your lawn and exposing it to as much sunlight and air\u00a0as possible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Minimizing\u00a0weed growth. <\/strong>During the fall season, spot treat or hand pull any weeds you&#8217;re seeing. For weed seeds in the soil, apply\u00a0a pre-emergent product. This will\u00a0disrupt\u00a0the germination cycle, preventing spring weeds from developing and spreading.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Serving\u00a0Danbury with Lawn Maintenance Tips &amp; Treatments<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Danbury&#8217;s winter season\u00a0can take a toll on you lawn without the right care and maintenance.
