You should put pre-emergent herbicide and fertilizer on your lawn in the spring. Pre-emergent herbicide keeps weeds from taking root. Fertilizer helps your grass to grow lush and dense and blocks future weeds from growing. You can also add amendments, such as sulfur and lime, to enhance your soil quality. 

Many factors can cause your yard to have lawn depressions. Here are the most common reasons: 

• Heavy rainfall 

• Wild animals such as moles, voles, and groundhogs that burrow and tunnel

• Poor drainage

• Buried items such as pipes that break down

• Decaying tree roots or stumps

• Soil that has compacted

• Improper mowing techniques

• Driving heavy equipment and vehicles through the yard

Experts use precise equipment to break up compacted soil, promoting healthy root growth and nutrient absorption.

Water your yard a little more deeply after a drought for about two weeks (while still avoiding overwatering). Continue to water in the early morning hours before 10 a.m. You'll also want to invest in some high-quality fertilizer to get more nutrients to your roots and help them grow back stronger and quicker. Look up your grass and soil type, or do a soil test, to see what type of fertilizer you need.
