Life gets busy. We get it. One minute it’s early fall, the next you’ve got a yard full of leaves, dead plants, and soggy mulch, and suddenly it’s freezing outside.
But skipping your fall cleanup doesn’t just make your yard look messy, it can actually hurt your lawn long-term.
Here’s what happens when you don’t take care of fall cleanup (and how Pusher’s Lawn Care and Landscaping can help you turn it around fast).
1. Smothered Grass = Bare Spots Come Spring
A thick mat of leaves blocks sunlight, traps moisture, and suffocates your grass. By spring, you’ll see:
- Thinning grass
- Dead patches
- Fungus growth
✅ A simple cleanup now means a much greener spring lawn later.
2. Mold, Mildew & Disease Take Over
All that trapped moisture under wet leaves creates a perfect breeding ground for mold and lawn diseases like snow mold.
🤢 Signs to watch for:
- Slimy leaves
- White or gray patches
- Mushy turf in spring
We offer professional fall cleanups to help eliminate these problems before they start.
3. Pests Settle In for the Winter
Leaves and debris make great hiding places for bugs, rodents, and other unwanted guests. Skip cleanup, and you could be rolling out the red carpet for them.
Pusher’s removes hiding spots and keeps your lawn and beds pest-resistant all winter long.
4. Clogged Gutters & Flooded Beds
Leaves that aren’t removed can block drainage, clog gutters, and cause water to back up into flower beds, mulch areas, and foundations.
We clean out beds and surrounding hardscape areas to keep your yard functional and dry.
