So, you want to keep your lawn looking its best this season, but you’re not sure how? Well, it’s simple really: get rid of those leaves cluttering up your grass. As the leading provider of lawn care services in Glen Carbon, we speak from experience.
When leaves are allowed to sit on your lawn for any longer than a week, harmful fungi and bacteria can begin to form which damages the grass. And that damage can progress and/or last through to spring before you even realize the extent of it. You basically have three options for removing leaves.
Leaf Removal Options
- Raking. Raking can be a fun activity for the entire family. Kids love to jump in piles of leaves. Maybe an adult jump or two might also be therapeutic? In any event, you can easily make timed games out of the activity, as well as lasting memories.
- Mulching. The lawn mower is another lawn tool of sorts that you can use to mulch leaves. This lawn equipment cuts grass and leaves of all sizes and shapes into small pieces that let sunlight through and slowly disappear over time.
- Blowing. Blowing the leaves with a leaf blower is the fastest and easiest way to get rid of them. Just be considerate of sleeping neighbors and don’t start too early. Electric or battery-powered blowers are fine, but if you’re dealing with anything over ½ acre you might want to consider investing in a gas-powered one, unless, of course, you have a landscaping company.
