Your lawn requires many things to help it grow and keep it healthy. Even when the cooler months of autumn roll around, your lawn still needs proper lawn care to ensure it can survive the winter and return thick and full in the spring. Leaf removal is vital to keeping your lawn healthy in the fall and preparing it for the winter.

This is why fall leaf removal is important for your lawn here in greater Chattanooga. Holder Outdoor can help. We have the tools and the professional crew to tackle leaf removal projects of any size or scope.
Leaf Removal Allows Your Grass to Grow
Allowing a thick layer of leaves to accumulate across your lawn suffocates your grass by blocking its access to sunlight and air. When your grass is unable to receive proper sunlight and air, it is unable to grow. A lack of nutrients contributes to weaker grass that is less resilient and unable to fight off diseases and pests. Removing leaf clutter from your lawn ensures your grass can breathe properly and soak up the sunlight and air it needs for proper growth. Holder Outdoor can remove leaves to help ensure your grass is able to grow optimally.
Leaves Hold Water & Promote Mold Growth
Your lawn needs to breathe and having access to air is pivotal for effective water evaporation. When leaves acumuulate on your lawn, they prevent water evaporation and trap moisture underneath their layer. This moisture creates the perfect environment for fungi, diseases, and mold. Mold is harmful to your lawn and can also be harmful to your health. When you walk across the leaves on your lawn, it disturbs and kicks up mold, thus releasing mold spores into the air. Breathing in mold spores can cause respiratory and other health problems. To prevent mold growth on your lawn, vigilantly remove all leaves and keep your lawn well-maintained during the fall season. Holder Outdoor can handle leaf removal professionally and efficiently so you don’t have to.
