As the days grow shorter and the leaves begin to change, it signals that it’s also time to adjust your lawn maintenance tasks and prepare your grass, trees, shrubs and flower beds for fall. End of summer lawn care doesn’t have to be hard, though; here are three simple steps that can offer big payoffs in the spring.
Aerate & Mow Your Lawn
Aerate your lawn to release soil compaction and increase water absorption. Continue mowing your grass, but gradually lower the blade height to help the grass withstand winter. You’ll foster stronger root growth and prepare your lawn for a healthy regrowth in the spring.
Keep Pests Controlled Now to Prevent Problems in Spring
Fall is the ideal time to tackle pests before they become a springtime concern. Apply appropriate treatments to eliminate insects and larvae that could overwinter in your lawn and garden. Controlling pests now keeps the risk of infestations lower and helps protect your landscape year-round.
Mulch & Fertilize Trees & Shrubs
Apply a layer of mulch around trees and shrubs to conserve moisture and regulate soil temperature as nighttime lows drop. Fertilize them in early fall to provide essential nutrients that promote root growth before winter. This practice strengthens plants, helping them survive the colder months.
