At Keyman Lawn, Tree and Pest, we believe in providing comprehensive lawn care for a healthy and vibrant yard. That’s why, in addition to our high-quality, phosphorus-free dry granular fertilizer and liquid weed control, we address the critical issue of thatch.
Pest & Disease Haven:
The thatch layer provides an ideal environment for common lawn disease pathogens, grubs, and other damaging insects to live and thrive.
Drainage Issues:
Thick thatch can impede proper water drainage, leading to soggy areas and potential root rot.
Poor Air Circulation:
It restricts airflow to the soil and roots, hindering healthy growth.
Nutrient Blockage:
Thatch can prevent essential nutrients from reaching the soil and root system.
Increased Soil Compaction:
A thick thatch layer can contribute to surface soil compaction.
Root Damage:
As thatch decomposes slowly, it can create an unfavorable environment for healthy root development.
Fortunately, Keyman Lawn, Tree and Pest can help you manage and reduce harmful thatch buildup in your lawn. Our dethatching service, typically performed in the spring, involves mechanically raking and removing the accumulated thatch layer.

By removing their habitat, dethatching minimizes the risk and severity of damage from diseases, grubs, and insects.
Improves Drainage & Aeration:
Allows water and air to penetrate the soil more effectively.
Enhances Nutrient Absorption:

Prepares Your Lawn for Summer:
