Here at the Lawn Shed, we’re grass lovers, just like you. That’s why we’ve put together a list of the top lawn care products you might need to whip your lawn into shape.
Fertiliser
Fertiliser is the good stuff that makes your lawn grow. Its nutrients keep your grass nice and green while helping it deal with wear and tear to guarantee its continued growth. Before shopping around for fertiliser, it’s important to first understand the needs of your lawn.
Factors like the type of lawn you have, the climate and the level of foot traffic your lawn experiences all play a part in the kind of fertiliser you should choose. There are two main types of fertilisers: dry and liquid. As their names suggest, this is the form the fertiliser comes in. Liquid fertiliser is absorbed and used quicker to speed up grass growth, but doesn’t last as long. It also means you’ll be mowing your lawn more frequently. In contrast, dry fertiliser can last for several months, can be applied with a spreader and simply needs to be watered afterwards to activate it.
Weed killer
While fertiliser works to thicken your lawn and prevent weeds from appearing, sometimes you need something with killer strength. That’s why it’s always handy to have some weed killer stashed in your garage. Weed killer or herbicides are a fast-acting liquid that destroys things like:
- Bindis
- Dandelions
- Clovers
Weed killers like Bow & Arrow are selective in what they take down, keeping your grass safe. If you’re unsure of what weed killer you might need for your lawn, have a play with our Weed Problem Solver tool. All you need to do is select which weeds are spoiling your lawn, and we’ll point you in the right direction.
Insect control
Another top lawn care product to have at your disposal is insect control. Pests like African black beetles or armyworms feed on your lawn or chew through the stems of grass, halting its growth. To prevent further damage to your lawn, it’s best to get on top of the problem as soon as you notice it.
Our range of insecticides take immediate effect on your lawn, with a range for every stage of an insect’s life cycle, killing not only existing adults but any larvae within the soil. Check out our Pest Problem Solver tool to get the exact insecticide you need.

To keep your grass looking lush and healthy, it needs to be regularly watered. One way to take the hassle out of this task is to install a sprinkler system.
