Treating Lawn Compaction

High traffic areas can wear down your lawn and compact it in some areas more than others. Learn how to restore your lawn's bounce and put a spring in your step.

  1. Lawn compaction is a common problem and can be due to wear and tear and heavy traffic.
  2. 00:19-00:34 To test if you have a compacted lawn, simply push a screw driver into the ground. In a good Sir Walter lawn, the screw driver should easily go down halfway more. If they did not, chances are your lawn is compacted.
  3. You can break your compacted lawn by using a garden fork or powered machines. You can also apply gypsum to compacted lawn at a rate of 1 kilo per sq. meter.
