After a brutal mowing season, most homeowners are ready to call it quits by October — right when fall lawn care actually pays off the most.
Lawn Love found:
- On burnout: 30% of homeowners describe lawn care as exhausting (15%) or frustrating (14%), according to a Tractor Supply survey.
- On time lost: The average person spends close to 384 hours of their life mowing — about 16 days total.
- On even more work: Fall adds extra tasks like leaf removal, aeration, and overseeding right as people are most burned out.
It’s those additional fall yard care chores that are the secret to a healthy, thriving lawn come spring. So don’t call it quits just yet.
Lawn Love’s Senior Managing Editor Sharon Sullivan (who faces yard work burnout herself) is available to talk about why giving this up now is so costly: Skipping fall care typically means paying 1.5X to 2X more next year to repair the damage, according to Sprout Lawn & Landscape.
