Lawn Compaction
Lawn compaction is also a problem to look out for over winter, particularly if you’ve experienced some high rainfall recently, or you have areas which are heavily shaded that tend to get a little damp. When the soil becomes compacted, the roots aren’t able to breathe, and this will cause the lawn in these areas to thin out and eventually die. Grab your pitch fork or strap on your aerator sandals, and loosen up the soil. If you tend to have quite clay soils, an application of lime and gypsum would also be very beneficial at this time.
