METHOD 1-PROBE AND DRIVER

Used in less moist lawns where targets are not so deep (one to four inches) and "plugging" is

objectionable. This method requires more practice but is much less damaging to grass than Method 2.

After pinpointing the target, use a nonmetallic probe such as a modified fiberglass fishing rod or a

metallic probe such as a blunted ice pick (the former being the least damaging to the target) to locate

target depth (Fig. 1 A). Next insert an eight-inch screwdriver on center just above the target and rotate

slightly to open ground (Fig. 1 B). Now insert the screwdriver just under the target at an angle and lever

target to the surface (Fig. 1 C). Brush all loose dirt back in the hole and close by exerting pressure all

around opening (Fig. 1 D).
