What is Dethatching and Why is it Needed

A luscious green lawn is what home owners are wanting year round however, the natural accumulation of thatch can undermine and eventually choke your lawn to death.

Thatch consists of areas of lawn where dead grass and debris accumulates between the soil and the freshly mown tops. Over time, the thatch breaks down as mulch would so it can be good for your lawn by promoting growth through supplying vital nutrients.

Too much thatch is a problem. Once the thatch accumulates to a depth of approximately 20mm, the thick thatch layer begins to choke your lawn by preventing water, fertilizer and air from reaching the roots. The thatch layer also restricts sunlight so that it can’t penetrate to the base of your lawn which means disease and breeding insects can take hold.

To determine if your lawn needs dethatching, test to see if a firm finger prod can penetrate down to the level of the soil. If the thatch is thick, matted and difficult to separate by finger force… it’s time to get your lawn dethatched.

Dethatching is a specialised task that is best left to the professionals who will have the right equipment and the knowledge to effectively dethatch the lawn and ensure it returns lush, green and healthy.

Vertimowing is the trade name for removing thatch from lawns and is an affordable solution for achieving a lush green lawn, particularly when it’s part of a regular lawn service.
