It is easier and faster to mow a leveled lawn and the process results into a high quality cut. Below are the main ways of leveling your yard without killing the grass.

When there are small depressions or holes on your lawn covered with healthy grass, you can cut out a patch and add the soil mix below it then putting back the patch. The technique, known as sweeping under the carpet, is most suitable for leveling localized depressions without exposure of the soil.

What kind of screw can I use for grounding?

Ground screws must be -32 thread pitch or finer, and must be threaded into the metal box. 10-32 is the "conventional" size. And most metal boxes have a hole tapped for a #10-32 screw for precisely that purpose.

Ground screws do not need to be green.

Though they sell some very cute green ones ten for a buck if you want them to be green. Ground screws must be -32 thread pitch or finer, and must be threaded into the metal box. 10-32 is the "conventional" size. And most metal boxes have a hole tapped for a #10-32 screw for precisely that purpose. This is visible as a hole slightly smaller than the normal mounting holes. If you can't find it for love or money, likely someone has driven the physical mounting screw into that hole. Better boxes try to help deter this by putting the ground screw on a stamped "bung". That also gives the ground screw a place to go besides straight into the wall, but if someone misused the hole for a mounting screw, that problem will be solved :)
