When you’re stuck at home, there’s no better time to tackle home improvements. Lawn maintenance is the first chore to tackle because everyone sees your yard.
But let’s face it: yardwork isn’t everyone’s favorite thing to do, but these Simple Solutions make it much easier:
1. Easily Remove Roots
Whether you’re digging a garden or planting a tree, you’ll eventually stumble on some roots.
You need to remove surface roots and roots buried deep in the ground before planting anything new.
But it’s not difficult with this simple modification of one of your lawn maintenance tools.
2. Multitask While You Mow
If you don’t want to run back and forth for all the different tasks required to keep your lawn looking good, you need to learn how to multitask.
It takes little expense to tweak your lawnmower to hold other lawn maintenance tools that make the job more efficient.
3. Easy Grass Spreader
As you mow the lawn, you’ll notice all kinds of problem areas — roots you should remove, ant beds to spray with insecticide and bare spots that need grass seed.
But you don’t need to lug around a big drop spreader for the occasional bare spot; that’s overkill. In fact, all that you need to get the job done might surprise you!
4. DIY Sprinkler
Sprinkler systems can be expensive, whether you purchase an automatic or portable system, but don’t let the high price stop you from providing proper lawn maintenance.
You just need your garden hose and some everyday household items to create an effective sprinkler on a shoe-string budget!
5. Convenient Tool Storage
Let’s face it, mowing your lawn is just half the job — your yard needs detailing just like your car does, to really make it shine. But you can’t give the lawn a finished look if you can’t even find your tools!
Fortunately, there’s a way to conveniently store your rake, hoe, garden fork and other long-handled tools.
We hope these tips make lawn maintenance easier and more efficient for you.
