Midwest lawns face several threats throughout the year, from weed infestations to the sudden weather changes between seasons. A common threat that often goes unaddressed is compacted soil. Compression under the surface of your lawn can build up over time, damaging your root systems and causing long-lasting problems with its overall health. At Lawn Doctor of St. Charles, we use advanced lawn aeration treatments to remedy compacted soil and keep local lawns looking their best.
How Lawn Aeration Keeps Your Yard Healthy
There’s a wide range of essential functions that aeration performs in order to keep your yard better protected from external threats and healthy through the seasons. Here are just a few of the many advantages that come with choosing the advanced lawn aeration treatments we offer at Lawn Doctor of St. Charles:
Reinforces Your Yard’s Natural Defenses. A weak lawn is more susceptible to lawn diseases, weed infestations, and a wide range of other threats. Compacted soil weakens your lawn by blocking the absorption of water, oxygen, and nutrients, leaving it unable to support new grass growth. Aerating your lawn ensures that your yard is consistently able to effectively circulate the elements it needs to survive, strengthening its root systems and boosting its defenses against the internal and external threats that pop up over time.
Improves Root Development. Compacted soil not only prevents your roots from developing by blocking the circulation of the elements they need to thrive, but also by physically restricting them. Roots need space to grow, and compressed soil takes away any room for growth. Easing this compression with regular aeration allows your root systems to expand and grow to their full potential, keeping your yard healthier and stronger in the long run.
