lawn care

Mowing and edging

Lawn care is the maintenance of grass-covered areas around homes and buildings.

It encompasses mowing, watering, fertilizing, weed control, and pest management.

The term often appears in advertising for professional services: We hired a lawn care company to treat the crabgrass.

Lawn care can range from basic mowing to elaborate regimens involving seasonal treatments and specialized equipment.
