Q: How do you make leaves decompose faster?

• <div><p>If you want to take the decomposition process into your hands to speed it up, water and sunlight are key. Of course, you can&rsquo;t control sunlight yourself, but you can rake leaves into piles in sunny spots in your yard. In terms of using water, you can also moisten the decomposing leaves with water, whether by pouring some from a watering can from time to time or using a hose to moisten them.</p></div>

Q: How do I dispose of old shrubs and roots?

• <div><p>If you have a large number of leftover roots, shrub branches, rocks, and soil to remove from your stump removal project, you may need to call a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/junk-removal/">professional junk removal service</a>. A small truckload of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-junk-removal-cost.htm">junk removal costs</a> between <b>$75 and $125</b> to haul away. You may also have a free composting center in your area where you can haul the materials on your own.</p></div>

Q: Should I pick up dirt after aerating?

• <div><p>Don&rsquo;t pick up dirt after aerating. Even though it's tempting because soil cores are incredibly unsightly, these cores and the dirt they leave behind are ecologically important. This is what keeps your grass looking beautiful and growing healthily. The soil cores need two to three weeks to decompose, but you can swat them with a rake if their natural shape bothers you.</p></div>

Q: How do I get rid of earwigs permanently?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll need to kill the earwigs using traps or insecticides, and then prevent them from entering your home. Make sure you fix leaks and seal up all cracks and crevices. You can use a dehumidifier to cut the moisture and drive earwigs out.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if my lawn mower can handle leaves?

• <div><p>A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn&rsquo;t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that&rsquo;s a good sign it&rsquo;s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.</p></div>
