Aerating lawn
Is there a person that does this as a one time or annual service or do you have to sign with companies like Massey to take other services?

KB lawn service will do as one time.

Be sure to flag all sprinkler heads, if they don't do that before hand themselves.
|
Thank you so much. I shall call KB. There are donuts around the sprinkler heads. I should think that would be enough of a hint :)

Golfingnut: I was under the impression that with the sandy soil here and the zoysia you aerate once a year. Have I been given a line of whooey?

Ooooooh. Thank you for the clarification. Yes...sandy soil doesn't really hold water.

We have Massey, so I do not have a name for you. I am sure there are folks that do it as a one off in the spring. I remember one year a "solicitor" was going around the hood charging $40-50/lawn. He did several neighbors.
If you get it done here is why and things you may wish to know. Lawn Aeration | The Zoysia Farm Nurseries Blog |
Massey aerates once a year and in my view its worth it since cut grass is left to accumulate

I think aeration is the best thing we can do in your yard. Aeration helps compaction and helps stimulate root growth. I feritilize right after I airify. Water it in and watch it grow. Even with sandy soil it will help. I would airify once a year.
MY opinion. |
In 30 some-odd years in Florida, I have never had my grass aerated. We're mostly in sand, don't forget, and sand doesn't need that.
Don't waste your money. It's just another service these maintenance companies throw at Villagers to make an extra buck! |

Great. I am south of 466A but in Fernandina...I wonder if it is sand or clay. How do you find out?
