Grass catchers, also called baggers, work like the bag of a vacuum cleaner, gathering cut grass and holding it until you're ready to empty the bag. If your lawnmower doesn't have one or your original one broke, here are some tips on using them.
There are catchers for all types of lawn mowers, including zero-radius turn mowers, commercial mowers and walk-behind mowers. These accessories are easy to attach and remove from the lawnmower. There are original equipment manufacturer baggers and aftermarket grass catchers for each make and model of mower.
Grass catchers collect the cut pieces of grass that are blown out from under the mower's deck. Steel grass catchers offer durability, and aluminum offers resistance to rust and a lighter weight. When mowing the lawn, aim to cut one-third or less of the length of the grass. Cutting less of the grass's height at a more frequent rate is better for the root system. This also means fewer times emptying the grass catcher.
If you're tired of raking your lawn after mowing it, a bagger is a good choice. It will save you the extra work. Bagging the lawn clippings also helps your grass look tidier. Less thatch will build up. If you walk on your lawn or have a pet that walks on the grass, there will be less grass tracked back into your home when you have a catcher for the clippings. If you have a compost pile, the grass clippings will help with the composting process.

Some people prefer using a commercial grass catcher, while others are partial to letting the clippings return to the lawn. However, there are several benefits of using a commercial grass catcher. For example, it can help produce a neater lawn appearance.
For those who love composting, grass clippings can also be an excellent addition to the compost pile. The catcher makes them easier to transport to their final destination.
The owner's manual for your lawn mower should come in handy. It should offer valuable information about which commercial grass catcher pairs well with your mower.
Cutting wet grass can come with a host of potential issues. You might not get the type of cut you desire, or clumps of wet grass may repeatedly clog your mower, unnecessarily lengthening the process.
A commercial grass catcher is easy to clean. All you have to do is disconnect it from your mower, hose it down well and scrub it on the inside and out. Let it dry thoroughly before reattaching and using it again.
The biggest safety precaution to take when using a grass catcher is to make sure the lawn mower is off and the blades have completely stopped moving before you take the catcher off the machine. Leave the mower off until you fully reattach the grass catcher.
