An effective, common practice for filling in these spots is called overseeding, which basically consists of cutting the affected grass short and seeding to promote growth and the evening out of your lawn. Too much or too little seed could sabotage germination, so be sure to use precision when applying your seed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fertilization.\u00a0<\/strong>Weathering the frigid temperatures and moisture variability of a Midwestern winter requires nutrients, leaving your lawn&#8217;s supply of valuable nutrients\u00a0low come spring. To replace these nutrients, even applications of fertilizer are essential. Every lawn has different nutritional needs when it comes to fertilization, and some may need several treatments to reach ideal nutrient density, so be careful with your applications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pest Prevention.\u00a0<\/strong>Standing water, dead leaf litter and shady areas can provide breeding grounds for invasive pests once the temperatures start to climb.\u00a0Clear these out and keep your lawn tidy as spring returns for a yard clear of pests like mosquitoes, ticks and others.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p data-qtag-num=\"Q30919483\"><strong>Call\u00a0Lawn Doctor of NW Cincinnati today at\u00a0(812) 637-0563 for additional spring lawn care strategies and to schedule your free Harrison-area consultation.
