Hot, dry weather combined with heavy foot traffic is stressful for the cool-season turf grasses common across Northern Illinois. This combination of conditions can lead to soil compaction, a condition where the soil particles are pressed together and roots cannot absorb enough oxygen, water, or nutrients as a result. If you’re noticing problems such as poor drainage and uneven growth, then compaction could be an issue and it’s time to aerate. Let Lawn Doctor of Batavia-Aurora handle the job with our lawn aeration services, available in Naperville, Wheaton, and other nearby areas in IL.
Why Lawn Aeration is Important at This Time of Year
Lawn aeration reduces soil compaction by creating new pore spaces in the soil for oxygen, water, and nutrients. Core aeration is a mechanical process that pulls out plugs of soil and helps your lawn break down the organic material that builds up above the soil line and can provide balance to the fungal organisms that thrive in the thatch layer with the soil bacteria.
Autumn in the Naperville area is an ideal time for aeration with a cool-season lawn. With more rainfall and lower temperatures, your lawn is under less stress and can recover faster, quickly filling in those holes left behind by the aerating process. It’s also a time of year when there’s less competition from weeds, so turf grasses don’t have to contend with them for space and other resources.
