Winter can be tough on your lawn, even when it's covered in snow!
Voles and snow mold can cause frustrating damage by spring.
Fortunately, preventive treatments in November can help reduce the risk.

🍂 Rake them or mulch them?
Whenever possible, MULCH!
Chopped leaves return valuable nutrients and organic matter to your soil. Just make sure they don't form a thick blanket that smothers your grass.

Your lawn has had plenty of time to recover from summer stress. Still seeing bare or brown patches? That grass may not be coming back.
Dormant seeding in November can give those areas a head start next spring!

The scariest lawn problems are the ones hiding under the snow.
Snow mold. Vole trails. Matted grass.
Okay...maybe we're lawn nerds if that's what scares us.
Happy Halloween from bioLawn!

We're getting close to one of nature's coolest lawn tricks.
Dormant seeding puts seed down after conditions become too cold for germination.
The seed waits through winter and is ready to germinate when conditions improve in spring.

The best time to think about vole damage isn't when you find it in April.
Fall is the time to prepare before voles spend the winter traveling beneath the snow.
Our fall treatment uses an organic repellent to discourage vole activity in the lawn.

This damage happened while the lawn was covered in snow.
Voles travel beneath the snow during winter. Those winding trails can stay completely hidden until spring.

Nobody wants to discover this when the snow melts.
If your lawn has a history of snow mold, a preventative treatment before permanent snow cover can help reduce disease pressure.

Where does snow pile up the deepest in your yard?
Along the driveway? Behind the house? In a low spot?
Areas that hold snow longer can be more susceptible to snow mold in spring.

Some spring lawn problems actually start before the snow falls.
Snow mold develops beneath snow cover and can leave matted, discolored grass behind when everything melts.
That's why prevention happens before winter.

Pop quiz: When should you stop mowing for the year?
Answer: C.
Your lawn doesn't own a calendar. Keep mowing while it is actively growing.
That dead spot from July? Don't forget about it yet.
The normal fall seeding window may be behind us, but another opportunity is coming.
November brings dormant seeding season for thin and bare areas.

Here's one October chore that's expensive to forget.
If you have an irrigation system, make sure it is properly winterized before freezing weather arrives.
Why wait until spring to start thinking about next year's lawn?
Starting lawn care this fall lets us begin improving your lawn now and head into spring with a plan already in place.
Next year's lawn can start this year or sign up now and check a to do off for next spring.
Don't let a few leaves turn into a thick blanket. 🍂
A light layer is easy to mulch. A heavy layer can smother the grass underneath.
Mow often enough this fall to stay ahead of them.
Be honest. Team Mulch or Team Rake? 🍂
We're Team Mulch whenever possible.
Chopping leaves into small pieces returns organic matter to the soil instead of hauling it away.
Your lawn had a tough summer. Fall is its recovery season. Cooler weather gives stressed grass another opportunity to grow and recover before winter. Some areas will bounce back. Others may need a little help next spring.
