 IPM Manual for Landscape Pests in BC - Chapter 5
A moderate layer of thatch (1-2 cm) is beneficial for most turf because it insulates roots from temperature extremes, reduces water loss and acts as a cushion to reduce compaction from wear.
When weed populations exceed tolerance levels in turf it is usually because the grass has been thinned out by poor conditions, such as drought, compaction, poor drainage, mowing too low, etc. Any openings in the turf will be colonized by weeds adapted to those conditions.
Turf with 5-10% weed cover is often accepted by users as "weed free".
