Aerating the Lawn
Lawns prone to waterlogging will quickly deteriorate encouraging moss to invade. Improve the drainage of the lawn by aerating.
 | Step 1 In spring use a hollow tine aerator to remove small cores of soil from the lawn. |
 | Step 2 Push the hollow tines into the grass at regular intervals; each new position will force the removed soil up the tines. |
 | Step 3 Using a besom or garden broom sweep Westland Lawn and Turf dressing into the holes to stop them filling back in with soil. Now feed the lawn with a lawn tonic such as Westland Aftercut Lawn Feed & Conditioner, which should be applied after mowing. |
