Yet, there are many residential lawn care claims in Bristol,\u00a0Kingsport, and other nearby areas in TN that are actually half-truths or straight-out myths. To help you avoid them, and care for your lawn properly, here&#8217;s a look at a few of them.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Myth #1: Fertilizers aren&#8217;t good for the environment. <\/strong>When you fertilize\u00a0correctly, in the right\u00a0amount, you can fuel growth and color without harming the environment. However, if you over-fertilize, it can soak into the groundwater. That&#8217;s why hiring a residential lawn care company in the\u00a0Bristol area\u00a0to fertilize is a good idea.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Myth #2: Beer can boost the color of your lawn.<\/strong>\u00a0Noticing yellowed or discolored areas in your lawn? Don&#8217;t pour beer or other tonics, like soda, on them. There&#8217;s no proof these actually work and are\u00a0simply a waste of time. Plus, the sugar and yeast in them can feed fungus and spread diseases.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Myth #3: Spiked shoes can help with soil compaction.<\/strong>\u00a0Wearing spiked shoes while you mow won&#8217;t do much when it comes to soil compaction. There&#8217;s simply too much ground to cover and these shoes can even cause already compacted soil to become more condensed. Skip the shoes and turn to a professional company for\u00a0core aeration.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Myth #4: Any thatch is bad for your lawn. <\/strong>Thatch is simply the\u00a0dead and decaying organic matter, like grass clippings, covering the soil. It&#8217;s not\u00a0bad for your lawn in small amounts. In\u00a0fact, it&#8217;s\u00a0good\u00a0because it breaks down and enriches the soil. When it&#8217;s heavy, though, it\u00a0stops water and nutrients from reaching the root zone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Ready for Residential\u00a0Lawn Care from Bristol&#8217;s\u00a0Experts?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Whatever is happening in your lawn, let professionals deal with it.
