Aurora, CO lawn care service at the click of a button

Aurora is prone to sporadic weather changes. From a scorching sunny day to a harsh blizzard the next, having a lawn in this climate can be incredibly difficult. That is why LawnStarter has the knowledge and experts you need any time of the year to keep your lawn healthy and looking good.

The Most Common Grass Types in Aurora: The most common grass found in Aurora are the fine fescues, Kentucky bluegrass, buffalograss, and perennial ryegrass.

When is the Best Time to Plant Grass: The best time to plant grass is the period between mid-August and mid-September. This is because the cooler climate isn’t as harsh as the summer climate in Aurora when it gets extremely dry and hot. The best types of grass to plant during this time are bluegrass, ryegrass, and fescues, as these are better suited for cooler climates.

Spring Lawn Care Tips for Aurora: After the winter season has passed, your lawn needs some extra TLC to bring it back to life. The first thing you should do is rake deeply into the lawn, removing the deep soil frost from the lawn and opening it to the sunlight. This is essential to the lasting health of your lawn. The next step would be to turn on the irrigation system. After this, fertilize the lawn, but only if the lawn needs it. Once you've done all this, you can start mowing weekly at a height of 2-3 inches.

Fall Lawn Care Tips for Aurora: The best tips to keep a lawn healthy through the fall may be simple, but effective. The first tip is to decrease how much and how often you water the lawn. The grass doesn't need as much water in the fall and, if it gets too cold, the water could freeze and cause damage to the grass. The second tip is to aerate the lawn. This process helps the roots of the grass get air and absorb nutrients better. Next, blow out the irrigation system before cold weather freezes the water in the pipes. Otherwise, you risk bursting pipes, causing potentially severe damage to the lawn under the surface turf. Finally, rake the lawn of any debris, like fallen leaves, that covers the lawn. Yard debris can deprive the grass and soil of crucial sunlight during the fall and winter seasons, leaving room for diseases like snow mold to grow.

Common Lawn Pests: Many different kinds of pests live in Aurora lawns. Scarab beetles, billbugs, sod webworms, winter mites, and cranberry girdlers are the most common and need to be dealt with immediately.

Common Lawn Diseases: The common lawn diseases you need to be on the lookout for are dollar spot, necrotic ring spot, and brown spot. If you notice discolored areas on your lawn, it's important to address them right away. Not sure what to do? LawnStarter's pros are experts at identifying and treating lawn diseases.
