Snow mold occurs when you receive a heavy, deep snowfall before the ground has completely frozen. All that weight on fragile grass plants, coupled with lots of moisture, cover from leaves, long grass, and lawn debris, can cause snow mold.
Signs of snow mold are usually most noticeable in the spring when the snow begins to melt. As the snow melts, straw-colored circular patches ranging in size from a few inches to several feet across appear in the lawn.
With the occurrence of snow there is a chance that snow mold can occur. Nelson’s Specialty Services is equipped to handle snow mold and spring clean up in Milwaukee, Mequon and Menomonee Falls.
