Aerating your lawn gives it a number of great advantages. The aeration process helps to loosen up soil that is too compact. If your soil is too compact this can prevent your grass from growing a healthy roots system and it also prevents water and fertilizer from reaching the roots system. This means your lawn isn’t as healthy as it could be. Aeration can solve both of these problems and improve the overall health of your lawn. It also means your lawn can require less maintenance in the long run.
