You may have never thought that the simple activity of mowing your lawn could have a significant impact on your life. Well, believe it or not, even simple decisions related to lawn care can have a real impact on you and your property.
For example, what’s the preferred length for your grass? Some people like to mow as infrequently as possible, so they cut their grass very short. However, if the grass is cut too short, it can cause the roots to be shallow, and the grass won’t survive much abuse. On the opposite side of the coin, leaving grass taller can be a bad idea too, since pests like insects and rodents love to make homes in tall grass. At the end of the day, your homeowners’ association might have something to say about the length of your grass, too. And so, like a lot of things, a simple choice can end up having a long-term impact.
