Lawn care help #1 - Aerate the lawn

The lawn is aerated by driving in a fork or other spiked instrument at intervals into the lawn so as to relieve compaction. Drainage is improved and new growth is stimulated. Aerate the lawn at least once a year if the ground is badly compacted and moss is present. It should be sufficient to aerate the lawn once every 3 years if a hollow tine fork is used for spiking.
