Exact date to mow your lawn revealed and it's not for weeks yet With spring around the corner, it’ll soon be time to start trimming the garden.
These small maggot-like creatures can wreak serious havoc on your garden, as they chew on grass stems and leave large brown patches of dead material.
Plus, aside from keeping nasty insects away, trimming your grass also encourages it to grow thicker and denser.
However, for those that take a lot of wear and tear, strive to keep their grass raised at around 5cm (2in) in height.
If a part of your lawn is covered by shade, maintain the grass at a height of 7.5cm (3in).”.
