Three Simple Steps for Winter Lawn Care

Do you know how to care for your lawn in the winter?

Unsure how to help your lawn come back healthy in the spring?

With no more mowing or weeding, winter is a period of rest from traditional lawn maintenance, but there are a few things you can do to ensure your lawn comes back green and lush in the spring.

1. Next year, in prep for the first frost, gradually lower the blade of your lawnmower with each mowing.
2.  Avoid walking on your lawn in the winter. Also remove anything sitting on the lawn, like furniture, toys or fallen branches. The weight of these items can stunt your grass or even kill it.
3. Be careful when treating ice! Avoid damaging your lawn and landscaping during the winter by using Ice Melt instead of rock salt. Ice Melt covers two times more area than rock salt.

While your lawn may not require as much care in the winter as it does during the other seasons, these simple lawn care tasks can set your lawn on the right track for spring.
