4 Benefits of Aerating Your Lawn
If you’re like most homeowners, you probably don’t give much thought to lawn aeration until the time comes to do it. Then, you may wonder why on earth you didn’t do it sooner! Aerating your lawn is one of the most important things you can do for its health and vitality. Here are four benefits of aerating your lawn, brought to you by Simply Green Lawncare in Georgia!
Distributes Nutrients
Over time, lawns can become compacted due to foot traffic, weather conditions, and other factors. This compacting can prevent important nutrients from reaching the roots of your grass. Aerating helps to loosen up the soil and allows nutrients to reach the roots more easily.
Helps Grass Root Deeper
In order for your grass to be strong and healthy, its roots need to grow deep. If the roots are shallow, the grass will be more susceptible to damage from heat, cold, and drought. Aerating helps to promote deeper root growth and, in turn, promotes heartier grass overall.
Reduces Thatch Buildup
Thatch is a layer of dead plant material that can build up on your lawn over time. A small amount of thatch is actually good for your lawn, as it provides some protection from extreme temperatures. However, too much thatch can prevent water and nutrients from reaching the roots of your grass. Aerating helps to reduce thatch buildup and keep your lawn healthy.
Improves Drainage
If your lawn has poor drainage, aerating can help. Aerating creates small holes in the turf, which allows water to drain more easily and prevents pooling or puddling on your lawn. This is especially important if you live in an area with a lot of rainfall.

I have been with these guys for one whole season. 99.9% of the weeds are gone. The grass has never been so green. They have lived up to their name.

I just had another comment this morning on how good our fescue lawn looks, which happens several times a week. I walked out in our back yard this AM and couldn't believe it was the same yard as what I dealt with last year. We have a good lawn maintenance crew that takes care of mowing and edging, and we have a good company that takes care of weeding, feeding, and shrubbery & trees. I enjoy telling friends and neighbors about your service. Thank you and keep up the good work!

Happened to be home and Ben was treating the yard. He took meticulous care in the treatment. Please convey my thanks to him.
