# Acorns and Fallen Nuts in the Lawn in Easley, SC

Oak trees around Easley drop heavy loads of acorns in fall. Left on the lawn, they make mowing rough, smother patches of grass, and draw squirrels that dig up the yard.

- Rake or use a nut gatherer every week or two while the drop is heavy so acorns do not pile up.
- Do not mow over thick layers of acorns; they can dull the blade and get thrown hard.
- Bag acorns instead of leaving them in beds, where they sprout into oak seedlings in spring.
- Ask a local lawn crew to add acorn pickup to a fall leaf cleanup if the yard has several big oaks.
