Hello
I have never heard about that either. Makes sense, as it gives the native plants a chance to grow. Hopefully, the ones that you WANT grow best! Lol 😆
Where I am in Thailand, you have to continually cut the grass to help keep the snakes and other unwanted pests under control.
Keep up the good stuff!

Snakes are an unwelcomed visitor here as well. We definitely have a few poisonous species here. I usually only need to mow once or twice a month any longer than that I will definitely get notice.
