The Spring

In general, the best time to aerate your lawn is in the spring or fall. This is because the weather is cooler and the grass is growing more slowly, so the holes made by the lawn aerator will have time to heal before the grass starts growing rapidly again.

The Fall

One of the best times of year to aerate your lawn is in the fall because the weather is cool and the grass is still growing. Aerating your lawn in the fall will help to improve the drainage and reduce the amount of thatch in your lawn, which will help your lawn survive the long, cold winter months here in Kansas.

Other Times

However, there are a few exceptions to this rule where you may need lawn aeration services from our company. If your lawn is heavily trafficked, you may need to aerate more frequently. And if there is a lot of clay in the soil, you may need to aerate more often in the spring to help break up the compacted soil.
