Louisiana lawns can be vulnerable to several internal and external threats as the seasons go by, from pest infestations to nutrient deficiencies. One of the most impactful issues that can pop up in your yard is compacted soil. Compacted soil not only weakens your yard’s overall health, but it also makes it more vulnerable to a long list of other issues. We use the proven lawn aeration treatments of Lawn Doctor of Mandeville & Covington to keep local lawns healthy and growing through the seasons.
The Benefits of Lawn Aeration
There’s a long list of benefits that come with performing regular lawn aeration. In addition to keeping your yard protected from compacted soil and the issues it brings, regular lawn aeration helps your lawn stay green and growing in the long run.
One of the ways that aeration keeps your lawn healthy and growing over time is by boosting the health of its root systems. Aerating your soil creates space not only for nutrients and oxygen to circulate more effectively and nourish your grass, but also for roots to expand. Roots that are able to grow to their full extent are able to produce healthier, stronger grass growth for longer than roots that are stifled by unhealthy, constricting soil.
Another important benefit of keeping your yard aerated is the prevention of thatch accumulation. Thatch builds up on top of compacted soil, and it can cause a long list of issues by preventing water and sunlight from reaching your lawn. The absence of these essential elements weakens your yard and prevents it from growing. By aerating your yard on a regular basis, you’ll be able to effectively prevent thatch from building up and keep your lawn healthier in the process.
