Mequon Lawn Trimming and Lawn care services are still available, get your lawn ready for winter.

Lawn Trimming and Fertilizing are a few of the needed steps to make sure your lawn is ready for winter.

Put plastic or wire mesh (hardware cloth) tree guards around the slender trunks of any new trees and shrubs to protect them from rabbits and mice, and make sure the tree guards go high enough, over the snow line.

Clean up fallen leaves from your lawn each week instead of leaving the job until all the leaves have fallen. In fall, lawn grass still needs sunlight as it is creating sugars to store in its root system for good growth next spring. Leaving the leaves on top of the lawn can smother the grass and weaken it. However, there is an easier way than raking to deal with leaves on your lawn: just chop them up with your mower, and leave them on the grass to break down. You will probably have to run over them a couple of times. Turf grass benefits from chopped up leaves left on the lawn instead of being raked off.

Cut the lawn one final time: After you are finished, why not get your mower serviced and its blade sharpened now so it will be ready for spring?

Keeping your lawn fertilized is always a good idea, but it’s especially important before the winter season, when it may not get the chance to have a “good meal” for months. Fertilizing your lawn keeps it healthy with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which fortify your lawn and keep it green and strong through temperature changes.
