10 Reasons to Get a Fall Yard Clean Up

1. Prevents Lawn Damage

• Wet leaves left unattended can smother your lawn, leading to bare patches, moss growth, and fungal issues. A thorough leaf removal will keep your lawn healthy and strong.

2. Protects Plants from Frost

• Mulching your garden beds not only helps retain moisture but also protects your plants from frost. This layer of mulch acts as insulation, ensuring your plants survive the winter chill.

3. Eases Spring Workload

• By tackling overgrown plants and shrubs now, you reduce the amount of work needed in the spring. Fall pruning ensures that plants don’t become unruly when the growing season returns.

4. Reduces Slip Hazards

• Slippery wet leaves can create dangerous conditions in your yard. Clearing them away minimizes the risk of falls and injuries for you, your family, and your guests.

5. Prevents Pest and Disease Outbreaks

• Fall clean-ups help manage weeds and remove fallen leaves, which can attract pests or harbor fungal diseases. Keeping your yard tidy during the rainy season limits the spread of these problems.
