Of course, there is a procedure and variables to consider when mowing your lawn. You cannot just go and mow the lawn at any height and time it pleases you.

Why Is That? Well, what happens is that improper lawn mowing (wrong time and height) can stress the grass, attract yard pests and illnesses.

When cutting your lawn too short, the soil will lose moisture at a more rapid pace. Besides, its root system won’t grow deep, making your yard susceptible to droughts.

There is even more! A very short grass fosters an environment for weed and disease infestation. But when hiring us, you won’t have to worry.

At Alex’s Landscaping and Excavating, we pay attention to every detail. Thus, when getting our lawn care services in Poulsbo, WA, you’ll get your grass cut to the ideal height.

Did you know that the proper height for mowing your lawn depends mainly on the type of grass? For instance, Bentgrass can be mowed 0.25 inches, while tall fescues should be 3 to 4 inches high.

It’s important to mow your grass at the proper height because it makes it drought-tolerant and discourages unwanted weeds from growing.
