Routine lawn maintenance is crucial to a healthy lawn year-round. Fall yard cleanups are essential to prepare your lawn for the upcoming winter months and give it the nutrients it needs to grow back robust and complete in spring. Here are some benefits of performing a fall yard cleanup on your landscape.
Your Lawn Can Breathe and Remain Healthy
During autumn, leaves tend to fall. These leaves cover your grass and deprive it of the air and sun required to stay healthy. If you want your grass to thrive and grow in the cooler months, you cannot deprive it of the sunlight it needs. Your grass stores that energy in its roots. As a result, your turf will appreciate you over the fall and into spring if those leaves are not covering your lawn. Eliminating twigs and leaves from your lawn is one of the best things you can do as part of your fall yard cleanup list.
Keep Your Yard Healthy During Wintertime
Eliminating leaves from your lawn is essential in keeping it healthy in autumn and preparing it for the wintertime. If it snows in the wintertime, and you have leaves on your lawn, the snow or water will not be able to drain. In addition, your lawn requires air circulation to survive the cold months. Unfortunately, a breeding ground for fungus or mold can develop if you leave wet leaves on your lawn. Remember to keep your lawn clean during the winter months to help with the growth when the weather warms up in the spring!
Prevent the Spread of Mold and Other Lawn Diseases
Leaf clutter can trigger potential damage to your lawn, such as mold, fungus, and diseases. Mold and fungus are likely to grow if your lawn’s leaves keep moisture from dew, rain, or even snow.
