Grub insect control: Keep Ohio's
"most unwanted" insect from eating your lawn. Grubs live
and feed in the soil. It's easy to miss them as they
gradually cut the roots out from under your lawn until
brown patches begin to appear and the grubs are finally
discovered. Let us provide season-long control with a
special service that will prevent grubs from invading
your lawn. |

Core aeration: spring or fall...
Power core aeration is one of the most important
cultural practices available for your lawn. Aeration
helps control thatch, improves the soil structure, helps
create growth pockets for new roots, and opens the way
for water and fertilizer to get into the root zone of
your lawn. Annual or semi-annual aeration is advised for
all lawns on heavy clay soils, those with a moderate
thatch buildup, and any lawn that needs to be "thickened
up." |

Lime application: Lime "sweetens" your soil.
In areas where soil is naturally "sour" (or acid),
this is extremely important for growing healthy
turf. Lime helps improve lawn color and density,
helps control thatch, and increases root
development. Our lime application helps keep the
chemistry of your soil in balance so that you can
have, and enjoy, a thicker, greener, healthier lawn.
*Note: Soil testing is highly recommended. |

Lawn disease management: Of all the pests that
damage lawns, fungus diseases are some of the most
difficult to tame. There are hundreds of diseases
that can infect your turf. Some are relatively
harmless; others can destroy an entire lawn in a
very short time. To reduce disease, keep the lawn
healthy and growing with proper feeding, mowing,
watering, and thatch control measures. Call us about
our disease control service. |

Slit-seeding: When lawn
renovation is needed, slit-seeding, also known as
slice-seeding, can often solve the problem quickly,
easily, and with little mess or bother. Our system
slices through the sod and plants new seed directly into
the soil, eliminating the need to strip the existing sod
or till the yard. Slice-seeding provides proper
seed-to-soil contact and results in much better
germination and growth rates than with seed that is
broadcast or spread by hand. |
