At Lawn Doctor of Virginia Beach, we utilize professional grass care solutions to bring healthier lawns to our neighbors all over the North Virginia Beach, VA area. However, because of the issues and external threats that can pop up between our visits, an ongoing approach to maintenance is crucial. And there are a handful of steps you can take between our treatments to help you get the most out of your lawn from season to season. Below, we’ll look at some general upkeep steps to give you a head start on keeping your lawn looking its best in the long run.
Keeping Your Yard Healthy Between Grass Care Treatments
Here’s a closer look at some of the steps you can take between grass care treatments to keep your lawn healthier over time:
Don’t Mow Your Grass Too Short
Mowing your grass does more than just keep it tidy. Effective mowing is crucial for your lawn’s ongoing development, so it’s important not to cut it too short. Regularly mowing your grass too short makes it more susceptible to weed infestations and weakens its root systems. To avoid these issues and maintain a lush, green lawn, it’s important to mow to a height of around 2.5 – 3 inches.
Quickly Address Weeds
When weeds start popping up, it’s essential to address them before they cause damage to your lawn. Our weed control treatments make short work of these invasive plants, but more can appear between our visits. We’ll help you put effective preventative measures in place to keep these plants out.
Designate a Specific Area for Your Pets
Designating a specific area for your pets to relieve themselves can help you avoid discoloration and dead grass that follows. Putting in protective elements like mulch or a patch of gravel can provide additional protection.
