\"FatherTemperatures are on the decline and\u00a0days are getting darker. While you might be ready to hunker down to prepare for the winter ahead, your lawn needs some extra care and attention first, before dormancy. Not sure what to give it?\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Wilmington can help. We know fall lawn care<\/a> in the\u00a0Wilmington, NC area, how turfgrass grows during the season, and what it needs to return better than ever next spring. Here’s a look at a few key steps to take:<\/p>\n

Fertilizing.<\/strong> This job is essential during early autumn. Your lawn needs a boost right now more than ever thanks to summer heat and drought.\u00a0This will also\u00a0give roots necessary fuel to store up reserves to get them through the winter months.<\/p>\n

Raking. <\/strong>When leaves begin to fall, start raking them up on a routine basis. If there’s too much coverage, it will block grass from getting adequate sunlight, impacting the amount of food it can store up for winter. It will also create wet conditions that are ideal for diseases, such as fungal infections.<\/p>\n

Applying pest and weed control.<\/strong> Before winter rolls in,\u00a0deal with chinch bugs or army worms and other lawn pests. Don’t wait for spring when they can do serious damage. Likewise, we can also apply a pre-emergent weed\u00a0treatment to suppress those types that tend to pop up in autumn, as well as prevent springtime perennials from making an appearance.<\/p>\n
