Your lawn may look perfect during the spring and early summer, but stopping care too early in the season could turn your beautiful yard into a playground for pests and fungal problems. Many homeowners assume that once the hot weather passes, their work is done. Unfortunately, lawns are still vulnerable long after the peak growing season, and skipping those final maintenance steps can have consequences that show up months later.
