Thatching or more appropriately “de-thatching” is the removal of dead grass and moss. Like Aerating, the best time to de-thatch is in the spring during the rainy season. With thatch removed, air, water, nutrients, herbicides and pesticides can do their job more efficiently.
Aerating your grass is the process of using a machine to remove cores of turf from your lawn, which will improve the flow of air, water, and nutrients to otherwise dense, compacted soil. One of the greatest causes of soil compaction is walking and mowing.
The Crane Fly is a turf damaging insect that can cause damage in all species of cool season turf grass. Crane Flies can be found in parts of the American Northwest, Northeast, and also parts of Michigan. The Crane Fly can be a big problem in the Seattle area! Approximately 10% of the lawns that we work on suffer from crane fly infestation.
