There are few factors to be kept in mind before applying fertilizers on your lawn. Determine the type of lawn grass, find out the soil type and measure the size of your lawn. This information will help you in selecting the right fertilizers for your lawn. Also follow the instructions available on the fertilizer pack about the quantity to be used and how frequently they have to be applied before adding them to your soil. The following steps will help you in getting your lawn properly aerated: The first important step before starting with your lawn aeration routine is to moisten the lawn soil by watering it thoroughly for a couple of days. For lawn aeration we need moist and not wet soil which may otherwise cling to the aerator’s tines. Another important lawn mowing safety instruction that should be followed is to ascertain that the mower operator is wearing proper shoes and not open sandals. A set of comfortable sturdy shoes will not only make your movement easier but also protect your feet from getting hurt. Other lawn mowing safety must haves are glasses or goggles or eyewear protection gear which will prevent eye injuries. In domestic gardens there are different methods like covering the area of the garden with many layers of newspaper for several weeks in order to control the amount of weeds. Also, you can use a black sheet instead of newspaper. You keep a newspaper for seven days, it prevents the light of the sun from entering beneath and hence kills the unwanted plants. You should protect your new lawn from trauma. Keep lawn traffic to a bare minimum during the first month. Do not allow anyone to drive onto your new lawn, ride bikes or do other activities that would damage your new lawn – such as playing a game of volleyball, setting up an elaborate outdoor party, etc. For families lawns are an integral part of their memories as their children grow up while playing there. Lawns are very useful for small family and friends get-togethers and they are eco friendly as well. So lawns are an important part of the house and family and thus it becomes necessary that they should be taken care of to the maximum possible level.
