How often should you clear leaves in autumn?

In autumn, clear the leaves from your lawn, patio and paths at least once a week.

A thick layer of wet leaves smothers the lawn and makes the patio and paths slippery. Evergreen Garden Care recommends clearing your lawn at least once a week while the leaves are falling. Compost the leaves or use them as mulch under shrubs.

  1. Rake or blow the leaves off the lawn and patio into a pile
  2. Clear leaves from drains and gratings
  3. Compost the leaves or use them as mulch under shrubs
  4. Keep the lawn and paths clear so the grass doesn’t get smothered
