Pesticide Free

Posted by Trendy Chick on June 1st, 2010

So can one really have a pesticide free lawn?  that would be nice – i would think.  I was reading up on some alli reviews when i came across an article online.  I was quite interested – because of the recent ban on the use of pesticide, i too wonder how can I go natural and kill those pest.

First thing first – i read – that first you have to have a healthy lawn – now that’s a good one – first how to keep a healthy lawn without the pesticides hahah!  they said to spread the grass seed in the spring or fall and and sow grass seed according to instructions and water well.  Use an aerator to punch holes in your lawn so that it can breath and use it mostly on compacted areas.  Mow at least once a week – now that i can do – if the weather would cooperate.

Spring is the best time to fertilize your lawn with a light layer of compost or seaweed based product.  But if you don’t like using compost like me – then use manure tea – easy to make too.  In the meantime, learn more about those pest and spot them.
