Proper lawn care requires many tasks including regular mowing, fertilization, weed and pest control, aeration, de-thatching, seeding and reseeding.

It is important to realize that by maintaining these aspects of your lawn the care becomes less time consuming and easier to manage. When homeowners let things go in regards to lawn care the result ends up being an expensive and labor intensive process.
