A HEALTHY LAWN BEGINS WITH HEALTHY SOIL.

Core aeration is a valuable tool for developing and maintaining a healthy lawn. Playing, walking, and mowing are all forms of traffic that compact soil and stress lawns, making them lethargic and prone to weeds. Core aeration alleviates compaction by removing finger-sized plugs from the soil and depositing them on the lawn. This makes for a lighter soil with increased space to hold moisture and nutrients. Annual aeration is recommended because it provides:

• Better rooting: With more available space, root systems thicken and reach deep into the soil.
• Enhanced thatch breakdown: Core aeration reduces thatch buildup and modifies it’s makeup by incorporating soil into the thatch.
• Reduced runoff: Increased ability of the soil to absorb rain and fertilizer helps maintain valuable resources.
