FAQ
Lawn aeration questions
When is the best time to aerate in North Texas?
For Bermuda and St. Augustine, late spring into early summer, when the grass is growing fast and recovers quickly.
Should I leave the soil plugs on the lawn?
Yes. They break down in a week or two and return nutrients to the soil.
How often should I aerate?
Once a year is enough for most lawns. Heavily compacted clay lawns may benefit from more.
