Fall Leaf Cleanup: Why Leaving Leaves Hurts Your Lawn

Fall is beautiful in Northern Indiana — but fallen leaves can quickly become a problem if they’re left on your lawn too long.

What Happens When Leaves Are Left Behind

Heavy leaf coverage can:

  • Smother grass

  • Create dead or thin spots

  • Trap moisture and promote disease

  • Make spring green-up slower and uneven

Even mulched leaves can become excessive when trees drop heavily.
