HOWELL, Mich. - Michimich -- Is your lawn ready for Michigan's impending snow?

Wondering how you can best prepare your lawn for the winter?

With another winter knocking on the door, now is the time to get your lawn ready for the cold and snow.

Winter lawn care is unlike lawn care during the rest of the year, but still very important to the overall health of your lawn. Following these helpful tips will have your yard ready to re-emerge in the spring:

1. For your final mowing, mow your grass a little bit shorter than usual. Grass that's too long over the winter can collect mold and spread disease. One last mow before it snows keeps it short enough to resist disease over the winter. However, the cold can overstress grass that's cut too short. The best grass height for winter is 3 ¼ inches.

2. Keep the lawn clean – Make sure you've raked the last bit of leaves that have fallen from your trees. Your lawn needs to breathe and leaving piled up leaves can damage your yard. Try to avoid leaving any other objects, like furniture and toys, on your lawn during the winter as well. This will ensure your grass gets enough sunlight.

3. Maintain your lawn mower – After the final mow of the season, you should perform a check up on your mower before properly storing it for the season.
