Sprinkle grass seed
The first step is to remove the thatch, weeds, stones, sticks from the lawn and provide the grass seed space to shoot up. Make the soil loose in uncovered parts upto a depth of 1î with a cultivator. On these spots apply a grass fertilizer or some compost. If these parts are a lot compacted, loosen the soil upto 6î. It is required to add peat moss to these parts after sprinkling seed. Now that the soil is ready, sprinkle the grass seed on these bare areas by hand or hydraulic methods. Different seeds are available for shady areas and those exposed to sunlight. Also depending on the look desired (i.e. which shade of green, how thick) different seeds are used. After sprinkling make the area slightly moist with water.
On Entire Lawn
While seeding the entire lawn mow the lawn short. This provides the sprinkled seeds space to reach the soil. Now if the soil is extremely hard the possibility of germination is less. So loosen the soil. Apply a good organic material on the soil. Select a new variety of seeds, which resists insects and can stand drought. Sprinkle seeds by hand, a mechanical seeder or a broadcast seeder. The sprinkling must be even. Avoid seeding on a windy day or it will blow to one side of the field. The fertilizer to be added must be low in nitrogen, which avoids burning and more in phosphorus, which enhances root development. Over the sprinkled seeds put a thin layer of compost. Keep the seed moist. Hydro seeding means that a professional company sprinkles the grass seed and mulch mix on the lawn and only watering has to be done. This is an easier but costlier method.
Tips
The areas in which seeds are sprinkled are to be kept moist at all times till the seed germinates. Intimidate birds from these areas by using a red flash tape. Maintain a thin film of organic matter (eg. Manure) over the area. Cover the bare area with plastic sheets placing some stones at the edges till little shoots grow upto 1î. Soon the fresh grass will mix with the old grass. Due to raking some existing grass gets removed but it is substituted by new grass.

Each female gives birth to two to six moles in a year. These can be expected in April or May. Their only use is that they consume insects.
