As one of the area’s leading providers of trusted and professional lawn care services in Bothell, we want you to know about a potential hazard to the lawn you’ve taken pride in having all year-round.
There are certain times when leaves threaten to ruin your otherwise flawless front yard and now is that time. Leaves falling from trees during fall can contribute to brown patches throughout the winter months. If they’re left to spread, they will continue causing damage into the spring growing season. Leaves block sunlight and nutrients and contribute to bacterial and fungal growth.
Leaf Removal Methods
Besides hiring a professional leaf removal service, you have the following three options:
- Raking is the tried and true way of removing leaves. Though it may seem like a much more tedious process compared to the other options, a rake can be a very effective tool in leaf removal and is the most environmentally friendly.
- Mulching is less laborious than raking but requires a mower. When the leaves are dry, you mow over them as they sit in the lawn, creating a fine mulch that allows sunlight and nutrients to penetrate through. You can also combine mulching with blowing to push mulch residue into natural bed areas.
- Leaf blowing is the easiest and fastest way to remove leaves. Just be sure not to start too early and annoy your neighbors with the noise. Another tip is to think ahead to where you want the leaves to end up—only go toward the street if your city is picking the leaves up there, otherwise, it may leave a difficult street clean-up situation.
