Standing water on lawn after rainFresno, California

If water sits on your lawn for more than 24 hours after rain, the yard has a drainage problem. Persistent standing water kills grass, breeds mosquitoes, attracts pests, and can seep toward the foundation. Causes include compacted clay soil, low spots in the grade, or lack of a drainage system. A landscaper can aerate compacted soil, regrade low areas, install a French drain or catch basin, and select moisture-tolerant grass species to solve the problem permanently.
