If you have a pair of golf shoes, you can wear them as you work in the lawn. Golf shoes don´t actually aerate the soil, but they do punch holes in the thatch layer, allowing greater movement of water, air, nutrients and pesticides. The holes also allow soil-dwelling microbes to propagate and get to the thatch, thus speeding breakdown and delivering more nutrients to the soil.
