Solid waste removal
Pet owners, fear not. Solid waste removal is straightforward:
- Immediate Pickup: Use a plastic bag or pooper scooper to remove the waste.
- Post-Cleanup: Rinse the area with a garden hose to eliminate any residue.
Liquid waste management
For liquid waste like dog urine:
- Simple rinse: Water does the trick, but for odour control, a mixture of vinegar and water or Monty Cleaner ensures a fresh-smelling lawn.
Preventing damage to artificial grass
To maintain the integrity of your synthetic grass:
- Avoid heat sources: Keep fireworks and cigarettes away to prevent melting or fusing of fibres.
- Sharp object caution: Prevent punctures and tears by avoiding placing sharp-edged objects on the turf.
- Vehicle caution: Never park vehicles on the turf to avoid damage and potential hazards like fuel leaks.
- Water quality: Be mindful of sprinkler water, which can leave mineral deposits.
