When Spring gets here so do dandelions. They spread quickly and your lawn can easily be overrun with them.
Raising your lawn mower's blade to 2.5 inches will create a lush lawn and repel weeds.
The next step is using a weed and feed turf builder. I use Scotts weed and feed turf builder -- it has a two fold effect - killing weeds, dandelions and a bevy of other things while the feed provides added nutrients to create a lush lawn.
Taking early, proactive steps to lawn care will provide you with long lasting enjoyment when BBQ weather gets here.
