spring & fall aeration
What is an Aeration ? Mechanical aeration provides an excellent, and probably the only, means of correcting or alleviating soil compaction which may be quite serious on many lawn areas. Aerating machines remove plugs of soil from the turf area, thereby creating an artificial system of large or noncapillary pores by which moisture and plant nutrients can be taken into the soil. They also provide a breathing system through which carbon dioxide can escape from the soil and oxygen can enter the soil
Grub Control
Heavy white grub infestations can destroy grass roots, causing the affected area to become spongy, which allows the sod to be rolled back like a piece of carpet. Grubs grow and feed below the surface of your lawn so you may not become aware of them and see the damage until it is too late. Preventive grub control starts in June, curative applications could be from August through Mid-September. about this category
