Aeration

• Benefits of Core Aeration
  
  Improved air and water circulation
  Aeration improves the exchange of air between the soil and atmosphere, which helps the lawn use water more efficiently and reduces water runoff. This can also help your lawn tolerate heat and drought stress better.
  Stronger roots
  Aeration loosens compacted soil, making it easier for water, oxygen, and nutrients to reach the roots of your lawn's grass. This encourages stronger root growth, which can make your lawn healthier and more resilient.
  Reduced thatch
  Thatch is a natural accumulation of dead grass on your lawn, but too much can prevent living grass from getting the nutrients and water it needs. Aeration breaks down thatch with decomposing microorganisms, which can help your lawn grow healthier.
  Improved nutrient uptake
  Aeration can also help your lawn use fertilizer more effectively.
