Description
Enhance your lawn’s health and vitality with the Mantis Aerator Attachment, designed specifically for Mantis 9 in. Tillers. This durable, easy-to-install attachment uses four sets of tempered steel "knives" to cut narrow slits into compacted soil—improving the flow of water, oxygen, and nutrients to grassroots. It’s the perfect solution for clay-heavy or compacted soil, and is highly effective when used before over-seeding or spot-seeding.
Ideal for seasonal lawn rejuvenation, the aerator helps reduce runoff and watering needs by promoting deeper root development. It installs in minutes and stores away compactly, making it a must-have addition to your lawn care toolkit.
