What's all this about? Seemed like a northern thing when I was looking at new blades for my lawnmower on Amazon.


Basically, it's like a comb that you run over your yard. It pulls out most of the dead undergrowth or thatch. You really don't need it if you have decent grass. My yard is a mixture of trash that the developer planted. The St. Augustine is slowing taking over, though.

I'll start sodding once I finally get the damn yard leveled and draining properly.

Probably what Lion4life said. Its a grass obviously, so you have to be careful that your weed killer will not kill what you want - bermuda or st aug for ex.
Its a tuff weed and certain digging and pulling is not the solution. BUT st aug will overgrow it if its healthy and you keep it somewhat under control.
