When should I aerate my own lawn?

• <div><p>It’s a good idea to aerate your lawn in the fall or spring when there is plenty of moisture in the soil. If you plan to aerate twice annually, you can do so once in the fall and once in the spring. You don’t want to aerate when your grass is dormant, and you also don’t want to aerate directly after a big rain, as the soil will be too wet for the aeration to be effective.</p></div>

Q: When should I aerate my own lawn?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s a good idea to aerate your lawn in the fall or spring when there is plenty of moisture in the soil. If you plan to aerate twice annually, you can do so once in the fall and once in the spring. You don&rsquo;t want to aerate when your grass is dormant, and you also don&rsquo;t want to aerate directly after a big rain, as the soil will be too wet for the aeration to be effective.</p></div>

Q: What follow-up care is recommended after professional aeration?

• <div><p>Implement overseeding and fertilization to maximize aeration benefits and strengthen your lawn.</p></div>

Q: How do I break up hard dirt in my yard?

• <div><p>Break up hard dirt in your yard with popular methods such as <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-core-aeration.htm">core aeration</a> or manual aeration with a spade, mini excavator, or pitchfork. You can also alter your soil to keep it from compacting in the future. Adding compost, groundcover plants, or aeration granules&mdash;preferably made of organic materials&mdash;can also soften your ground and encourage water saturation.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain my lawn after aeration?

• <div><p>Water the lawn thoroughly, apply fertilizer, and overseed if necessary to promote healthy growth.</p></div>

Q: What is the cheapest way to aerate a lawn?

• <div><p>A manual spike aerator or aerator shoe is a very affordable way to aerate a lawn. Such devices can often be purchased for between $30 and $50. Liquid aerator is another affordable option, but this enzymatic spray may not work as well as actual, physical aeration for helping ease compacted soil and may take several applications.</p></div>

Excellent job overall. We will be using them for routine lawn service. We live in the country and have an odd lot to mow with lots of trees. They did an excellent job and we have more usable space among the trees then we ever have. Love being outside now.
