We know that insects can be a serious pain point for a lot of our customers come May. So from May through October, our team will pay you a visit three times to spray pest control around the perimeter of your home or business. This will help protect against any pest that wants to make its way into your home, including ants, sowbugs, pillbugs, millipedes, centipedes, and any other creepy crawlers you want to steer clear of.
This service can be performed in the spring or fall, depending on your turf’s needs. When assessing your lawn, if there are particularly bad areas, we can even do some dormant seeding. When dormant seeding is necessary, it can be done after Thanksgiving because that’s when your turf is likely to be in a dormant state. Drill seeding is normally recommended for lawns with large, bare areas that need to be filled in.
Naturalized aeration is a new service that Sunset Lawns is offering in 2021. We utilize a granular product called C20. This product is a top-of-the-line material that is different than fertilizer or compost, it is an all-natural product that is spread onto the lawn and is activated when water (or rain) is applied to it. This product will stimulate the microbes in the soil and it can be applied at any time your turf is actively growing. Usually, this is done at the end of April, near Labor Day, or both.
Naturalized aeration is the perfect choice for customers who have an invisible fence, or those who don’t want to mark their sprinkler systems like you would have to for traditional aeration.
This traditional method of aeration is performed in the spring or fall. Sunset Lawns recommends that customers choose to aerate in the time between August through October because it tends to produce the best results. Mechanical aeration is usually paired with overseeding to revitalize the lawn, but overseeding can be offered alone – referred to as dormant seeding. The results of overseeding are generally better when paired with mechanical aeration.
