Thatch consists of a
dense mat of roots, stems and grass clipping, which accumulate between
the soil and growing turf layers. Excessive thatch creates a barrier,
preventing the absorption of water and nutrients, as well as limiting
air flow to the root system.
Allowing thatch to develop on an otherwise healthy
lawn reduces the effectiveness of pesticides and creates an ideal
environment for insects and turf diseases.
The periodic removal of thatch with a Lawn Comber will
greatly improve the health and appearance of the lawn. After
de-thatching, essential water, oxygen and nutrients reach the grass
roots.
