The first year i was here our service ( Provided by the HOA) used something else and I could tell the difference and that is why I do my own fertilizing now. I watched the guy spreading it on the neighbors places last week and he doesnt put it down as thick as i do either . A couple of big circles and he was done. As for aerating - You have golf shoes? Walk around the lawn with them on.
Was a good idea a few years ago.....spikes are not allowed anymore.
