What Is Aeration?

Aeration is the process of perforating the soil with small holes to allow air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deep into the roots. This helps alleviate soil compaction and improves overall lawn health. By opening up the soil, aeration encourages stronger root growth, resulting in a thicker, greener lawn.

When Is Aeration Necessary?

Aeration is necessary when your lawn shows signs of soil compaction, poor drainage, or thinning grass. It is typically recommended once or twice a year, especially in high-traffic areas where the soil becomes compacted over time. The best times to aerate are in the spring and fall, when the grass is actively growing and can recover quickly.

What Is Required For Aeration?

Effective aeration requires a core aerator or spike aerator, which removes small plugs of soil to create space for air and nutrients. A properly watered lawn makes aeration more effective, as the soil should be moist but not overly wet. After aeration, applying fertilizer and overseeding can further enhance lawn growth and density.
