How to edge your lawn

There are a few quick tips to edge your lawn like a pro. Check these out.

A neatly trimmed lawn is a thing of beauty. To keep creeping grass at bay and cut a clean line, I use my string trimmer as an edger.

Before you edge your lawn, check out which way the string spins: Is it clockwise or counter clockwise?

Walk in the direction your trimmer spins. So if it spins counter-clockwise, walk left to right. This provides the cleanest, easiest cut, and a clear path for the trimmings.

Make sure to re-fresh the string as needed to keep your cuts clean and your lawn looking cutting-edge.

The size of your yard will definitely impact the cost to maintain a lawn. The more square footage that needs to be mowed, treated and controlled, the more expensive and time-consuming it will be.
