In addition to our direct service, we&#8217;d also like to share our advice and guide you through some of the basic lawn care chores you&#8217;ll have to manage on your own. Let&#8217;s take a look at some helpful tips.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>DIY Grass Care Tips For Algonquin\u00a0Area Lawns<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We offer expert lawn fertilization, power seeding, weed control, core aeration, mosquito and tick control, and much more. Our\u00a0friendly professionals are\u00a0ready to handle these complex and difficult tasks while providing guaranteed results for your lawn. However, when it comes to simple duties such as mowing, watering, and protecting against damage caused by your pets, you&#8217;ll have to carry out the work on your own. Here are our professional tips for getting these tasks done right:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mowing. <\/strong>Mow your grass no more than once per week, and never cut your blades by more than 1\/3. Grass that is cut too short is more vulnerable to weeds, pests, and disease, so remember to mow high. Also, if you cut your lawn with a dull blade, it simply will not look right. Be sure to sharpen or replace your mowing blade as needed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Watering. <\/strong>Lawn\u00a0watering should always take place around sunrise.\u00a0We recommend two sessions per week.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spot-Train Your Dog. <\/strong>Dogs can do damage to your grass due to the nitrogen in their urine. To avoid the resulting dead spots, create a specified area of your lawn, away from your grass where your dogs can urinate freely. Spot-train them to only use this area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Expert Grass Care in Your Area<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Simple chores like mowing and watering can be easily done by following the steps above. However, when it comes to fertilization, weed control, and other tasks, the work is always best left to professionals. We have years of practice refining our strategies and adapting to the nuances of local lawns. With our experienced and detail-driven approach, we can produce excellent results for your grass, while saving you time, energy, and long-term costs.<\/p>\n<p>We proudly offer guaranteed grass care throughout:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Algonquin<\/li>\n<li>McHenry<\/li>\n<li>Crystal Lake<\/li>\n<li>Fox River Grove<\/li>\n<li>Ingleside<\/li>\n<li>Grayslake<\/li>\n<li>Island Lake<\/li>\n<li>Richmond<\/li>\n<li>Spring Grove<\/li>\n<li>Woodstock<\/li>\n<li>Lake in the Hills<\/li>\n<li>Vernon Hills<\/li>\n<li>Ringwood<\/li>\n<li>Mundelein<\/li>\n<li>Libertyville<\/li>\n<li>Cary<\/li>\n<li>Round Lake<\/li>\n<li>Wonder Lake<\/li>\n<li>Wauconda<\/li>\n<li>and the surrounding areas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>For grass care in Algonquin,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/mchenry-il\/contact_lawn_doctor\/\">contact us<\/a>\u00a0today.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With detailed grass care in Algonquin, Lawn Doctor of\u00a0McHenry County North and East Lake County can produce thick and lush grass for your home or business.
