This is also the time the adult crane flies lay new eggs which hatch and often start feeding on the lawn before going more dormant over Winter. The young grubs are more susceptible to the nematodes at this time, but some have reported success with a further application during Spring (April/ May), once the soil temperature is above 12 degrees. As the daddy long legs emerge, they start to lay their eggs back in infected lawns starting the whole cycle again - the next generation of leatherjackets hatch within 2 weeks.

As a preventive measure, nematodes can be applied in September to early October against leatherjackets.Then be sure to use plenty of conditioner on it in the next step and the color of your jacket will be more uniform. If you think about your skin and you think about that daily regimen everyone has or should have to moisturize your skin, leather needs to be moisturized as well,” says Schott. IMPORTANT: Remember to always test any leather conditioner, cleaner or product on a small inconspicuous area of your leather jacket first to ensure you're happy with the effect it may have on your product.

This treatment is made up of plant extracts and nutrients which alleviate damage when the lawn is under attack.

A leather jacket can be folded but it is best avoided if possible because keeping a leather jacket folded for long periods will cause creases. UV light damages leather just as it damages our skin and prolonged exposure to sunlight will dull the shine of a leather jacket.

If your jacket is worn infrequently, then once a year should be sufficient, however, if your jacket is exposed to rain or strong sunlight, the natural oils should be replenished every three months. The natural oils in leather dry out over time and this process is accelerated if the jacket is exposed to strong sunlight or other heat sources. As a result, we do not have much depth of soil and in some areas of our front lawn, it’s only a few inches. After several hours, when the dye has dried, you should buff the leather, apply a sealant and rebuff.
