Core Aeration and Seeding

 

 

 

 

 

1 application

 

Aeration and Seeding is a mechanical process which is performed early through late fall. A core aeration machine pulls small holes from the lawn allowing the lawn to “breathe”. Benefits from aeration and overseeding include deeper root systems, decreased compaction, decrease of thatch, and optimal soil to seed contact to promote germination when seeding. Core aeration and overseeding is recommended once each fall.  Core aeration and seeding results in a thicker more weed free lawn!

 

 

 

 

Late August through early November

Starter

Fertilizer

 

1 application

 

A balanced organic based starter fertilizer is applied containing appropriate levels of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium to promote germination when applied with seed.

Late August through early November

 

 

 

Pelletized Lime

 

Dependent upon pH test (maximum of 3 applications)

Lime neutralizes the pH level of your soil. An optimal pH is around 7. When your soil pH is at the optimal level, it allows your grass to most efficiently use the provided nutrients. Most soil in our area is too acidic.  Your soil’s pH would be tested to determine number of applications.pH testing is $50 and is deducted from the cost of your first lime application (if it is determined your soil needs lime).

 

March through December

 

Flea and Tick / Surface Feeders Control

 

 

 

3 applications

 

Fleas, ticks, chinch bugs and several other surface feeding insects are controlled with these applications.  The first application reduces existing populations.  The second and third applications result in continued control as eggs and larvae hatch later on.

 

 

April - August

 

 

Perimeter Pest Control

 

 

 

3 applications

 

Insecticide is applied around the perimeter of the house to help prevent insects from entering the home.  Pests such as Ants, Crickets, Earwigs, Moths, Roaches, Pillbugs, Spider Mites, and Spiders are controlled.
