Dethatching

Dethatching lawn is a process of removing the layer of dead grass, roots, and other debris that accumulate on the surface of your lawn over time, known as thatch. Thatch can create a barrier that prevents water, air, and nutrients from reaching the roots of your grass, leading to poor growth and health. Dethatching involves using specialized equipment like a dethatcher or a power rake to remove the thatch layer, which can help to promote healthy grass growth and prevent disease and pests. This process can also help to improve the appearance of your lawn by removing dead and unsightly material. Dethatching is typically done in the spring or fall, when the grass is actively growing, and can be combined with other lawn care tasks like overseeding and fertilization for best results.
