There are many different types of lawn aerators available. They also come at a variety of price ranges. It can be difficult to know if you are getting a good price on the machine. Sometimes it will be better to buy a machine while other times renting will be a much better option.
This article will look at a many of our options to help you figure out which one is best. Lawn aerator shoes are probably your least expensive option. Many models of these shoes are not very effective and tend to break rather easily. The types that do work will need to be used approximately every two weeks since the holes they make are not very deep.
Liquid lawn aerators are a bit more expensive than lawn aerator shoes. Because you can only use it once it actually ends up being very expensive per application. It gives the best results when it is used along with some other type of mechanical lawn aeration. Hand aerators are a good option if you have a small yard.
They are a very cost effective way to aerate your lawn. It will take some time and can be difficult to use if your lawn is too hard. The best results usually come with hand aerators which have two coring spikes. They come in handy if you have a small area which needs reseeding. The easiest and fastest way to aerate your lawn is with a machine core aerator.
These will cost the most as well. If you want to buy the equipment to do it yourself, then check out the listing of equipment on this page. Most people choose to rent these machines.
