Here at Jensen Lawn Care we offer Core Aeration. Core Aeration is done by using core tines to open up the ground. This way of aerating has several benefits for your lawn.
Benefits of Aeration
Air
By opening the ground, you allow oxygen to the root system. This helps strengthen your root system and allows the roots to grow deeper.
Water
Once aerated, water can directly reach the root system, instead of having to soak down to the roots. This helps improve the root system by growing deeper roots. Having deeper roots helps the lawn survive during hot summers and harsh winters.
Fertilizer
Fertilizing after aerating helps the root system receive extra nutrients. This makes the most of your investment in fertilizer.
Compaction
Core aerating helps reduce ground compaction. Reducing ground compaction is important because it helps fight off broadleaf weeds. Weeds love compact and dry ground. So the more healthy your lawn is, the more it will fight off weeds.
