Mold After Using the Turbogrün Lawn Aerator—Is This a Cause for Concern?

After using the Turbogrün lawn aerator, fungi may occasionally appear on the lawn. This may seem unusual at first, but it is completely harmless and is actually a good sign.

The visible fungi indicate that the natural decomposition and composting process has begun. The organic components in the lawn aerator are broken down by microorganisms, which activates soil life and strengthens the lawn over the long term.

The fungi usually disappear on their own after a short time. If you want to reduce their growth more quickly, you can mow the lawn with a mower that has a grass catcher. This will collect the fungi and prevent the spores from spreading further.

There is absolutely no danger to the lawn, people, or animals.
