With fall in full swing, you might not be paying as much attention to your yard. However, it still requires some care to recover from summer stress and get into excellent shape before the cold winter hits. Lawn Doctor of Virginia Beach can help with the job. As a locally owned and operated lawn care company, serving nearby areas in VA, we know the steps you can take, as well as the treatments we can deliver to prepare your turf for the season ahead.
How Our Lawn Care Company Can Help
During summer, your lawn experiences many challenges in the form of heat, drought, and heavy foot traffic. As a result, you might be noticing signs of damage. Therefore, it’s important to take certain measures in your yard to help it recover, so it’s not stressed when the winter weather arrives.
As a local company, Lawn Doctor of Virginia Beach can help with care, including:
Fertilization. Feeding your lawn during fall can provide the fuel necessary to repair summer damage, enable roots to grow deeper, and also help them store up more food reserves for winter. Your grass will have the nutrients in place to green up faster in spring, as a result.
Aeration. If your soil is clay-based or your lawn experienced a lot of action this summer, soil might be compacted. By aerating, we’ll open it up, so it can breathe easier, all while absorbing more nutrients and water.
Weed Control. By applying weed control now, you’ll treat them when they’re most vulnerable, storing up food for winter. Products get absorbed right into the root system during this time, leading to more effective control.
In addition, one critical step you should take is to rake up and remove leaves from your yard. When they sit, they form a wet, matted layer that creates ideal conditions for a fungal infection. Also continue to mow until the ground freezes, which will further eliminate leaves and reduce the incidence of damage from fungus.
