An Aeration is one of the best tools one can utilize when trying to obtain a Healthy Lawn. Core Aeration consists of making small holes in the lawn by either inserting small rods into it or by “coring”, or extracting a “plug” of soil and thatch out from the lawn. The following are just some of the benefits of performing a yearly lawn aeration:

• Oxygen can now easily reach the roots, allowing the grass to “breathe”, or let off gasses it produces
• Fertilizers and Nutrients can now get easier access to the root system because of the available space
• Water is now better able to permeate the soil, and reach the root system
• The thatch is now broken up, allowing micro-organisms to come to the surface and feed on it, giving the turf more nutrients
• The compacted soil surrounding the roots is now broken up, allowing new turf to grow, and giving you a fuller looking lawn

The benefits of core aeration are directly related to growing, and maintaining a  healthy lawn program. Many of our customers that take part in our own Fertilization can attest to the difference it makes.
