Expert Turf Maintenance Tips for Even the Biggest Pet Messes
Your furry friends love your artificial turf lawn as much as you do! Keeping your lawn clean is key for you both to keep enjoying it – so what are the most important turf cleaning tips for pet owners?
As the leading artificial turf maintenance service, we’ve learned a thing or two about stains and odors. Here’s everything you need to know about taking care of pet messes on your synthetic grass.
Tip #1: Remove Waste Promptly for Proper Turf Maintenance
Today’s artificial grass is designed for pet use, but that doesn’t mean solid waste should be left for a long period of time. Picking up solid waste, debris and anything else that’s made its way onto your lawn will help keep your lawn fresh. Aim to pick up your turf at least once a week to prevent problems like odors, bacteria, mold and mildew.
Tip #2: Spot Treat After an Accident
If your pet uses your lawn as its restroom, spot-treating is your first line of attack. If you’re in a pinch, a vinegar/baking soda mixture scrubbed into the area and hosed off with water is a great way to take care of the mess. For a more long-term solution, our TurFresh BioS+ deodorizer is the ideal way to prevent minor messes from causing long-lasting stains.
Tip #3: Use a Natural Disinfectant to Treat Pet Odors
When it comes to odors, stay clear of harsh chemical products that do little more than mask the problem with fragrance. Opt for TurFresh’s all-natural, science-backed formulas that break down bacteria at the molecular level. We put natural enzymes and minerals to work to gently but effectively eliminate pet messes. Browse our online store for the nontoxic products you need to keep odors at bay.
Tip #4: Schedule Regular Synthetic Grass Maintenance Services
At-home turf cleaning is helpful, but routine professional synthetic grass maintenance is essential for pet owners. Our Turf Techs use industrial-grade equipment to give your turf a deep clean that simply can’t be achieved with consumer tools.
Beyond a thorough disinfecting, our 10-point process will ensure every last detail of your artificial grass is attended to. We’ll rebloom your blades, remove debris and even tuck your edges.
