Besides, is it good to dethatch your lawn?
Dethatching is tough on a lawn, so do it when the lawn will have the best chance to recover. Don't dethatch if you're in a drought or a heat wave. Ideally, there should be about 45 days of good growing conditions after you dethatch so the grass will recover without weeds taking over.
Additionally, is a power rake and a Dethatcher the same thing? Many homeowners have the misconception that dethatchers and power rakes are two names for the same machine. Dethatching is less aggressive and removes small amounts of thatch from a lawn that is mostly healthy. Power raking is more aggressive and usually reserved for lawns with a large amount of thatch.

Small dethatching blades are sold as lawn-mower attachments, but they're not the best choice because they put a lot of strain on the mower. Most people rent a power dethatcher. Because these machines are expensive and dethatching is necessary infrequently, it rarely makes sense to buy one. These machines are heavy.
How do you clean up after dethatching?
The most important thing to do after dethatching is to clean up. Remove all the debris that you have pulled up. After that, it is time to pamper your lawn. It's going to need the nutrients and it is primed to use everything you give it, so have it watered and fertilized.
