Monty Artificial Grass Cleaner | Removes Pet Urine Odours | 1L

Description

Why Your Artificial Grass Smells (And How Monty Solves It)

If your artificial grass smells of dog urine despite hosing it down, you’re not alone. The problem isn’t the grass itself – it’s the bacteria that feeds on pet urine trapped in the infill material below. Home remedies like vinegar or baking soda only provide temporary relief because they don’t eliminate the bacterial source of the smell.
Monty Artificial Grass Cleaner uses a professional 4-in-1 formula to sanitise, clean, deodorise, and condition your artificial grass. Unlike general-purpose cleaners, Monty is specifically designed for artificial grass and includes our signature De-Brittle Technology to extend the lifespan and protect against UV damage.

What Makes Monty Different?

Certified Antibacterial Power

Most cleaners just mask the odour:
Certifications:

EN14476 – Effective against viruses (including coronavirus)
EN1276 Listeria – Eliminates listeria bacteria
EN1650 – Effective against yeasts
EN13697 – Surface disinfection

Works immediately: Meets EN1276 and EN14476 within 30 seconds of contact time.
Highly effective against:

Viruses (including coronavirus)
Bacteria (E.coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus hirae, Listeria)
Yeasts and moulds
Pet urine odour-causing bacteria

This isn’t marketing – these are proven laboratory certifications.

Signature De-Brittle Technology

Artificial grass becomes brittle from:

UV sun damage
Pet urine acid
General weathering

Our exclusive De-Brittle Technology conditions and refreshes grass fibres, extending the lifespan of your artificial lawn while cleaning it. This protective technology helps your grass stay flexible, vibrant, and looking newer for longer.

Fresh Cut Grass Fragrance

Rather than chemical smells or just “neutral,” Monty leaves your garden smelling like freshly mown natural grass. It’s subtle, pleasant, and natural – not overpowering like some cleaners.

4-in-1 Powerful Formula

Sanitises – Kills viruses, bacteria, yeasts, and moulds
Cleans – Removes dirt, stains, and organic matter
Deodorises – Eliminates smells and adds fresh fragrance
Conditions – Protects and extends grass lifespan

Safe for Food Preparation Areas

Monty is so safe and effective it’s approved for use in food preparation areas. This means it’s more than suitable for your family garden where children and pets play.

Perfect for Pet Owners (Especially Dog Owners)

The Dog Urine Problem

Male dogs tend to urinate in the same spots repeatedly, causing concentrated bacterial buildup. Female dogs spread it more evenly, but with multiple dogs or hot weather, the entire lawn can develop a strong ammonia smell that:

Embarrasses you when guests visit
Creates complaints from neighbours
Attracts flies and pests in summer
Makes you regret installing artificial grass

The Monty Solution

Recommended cleaning frequency:
Our product label recommends cleaning artificial grass around once a week, adjusting frequency based on your environment:

Heavy use (3+ dogs, male dogs, hot climate): Weekly cleaning
Medium use (1-2 dogs, regular garden use): Weekly to bi-weekly
Light use (1 small dog, occasional use): Bi-weekly to monthly
Between deep cleans: Rinse affected areas with water

One 1L bottle at 9:1 dilution = 10 litres of solution

Covers approximately 50m² of artificial grass
For average garden (25-30m²) with weekly/bi-weekly cleaning: 1L lasts 4-8 weeks

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Monty safe for pets and children?

Yes, Monty Artificial Grass Cleaner is safe for pets and children after rinsing. Following application, rinse the area thoroughly with water. Once rinsed and dry, the area is completely safe for pets, children, and immediate use. The product is non-toxic after proper rinsing and won’t stain paws or clothes.

How long does one bottle last?

One 1L bottle of Monty, when diluted correctly (1:9 ratio), creates 10 litres of cleaning solution covering approximately 50m² per treatment. For an average residential garden (25-30m²) with weekly to bi-weekly cleaning, one 1L bottle lasts approximately 4-8 weeks. Larger gardens or multiple dogs may require more frequent use.

Will Monty remove old dog urine smells?

Yes! Monty is specifically designed to tackle old, stubborn urine smells by killing the bacteria and breaking down the urine crystals that cause persistent odours. For very old smells (several months), strengthen the solution (1:5 ratio instead of 1:9) and brush vigorously to work the product into the infill material where bacteria lives.

How quickly does Monty work?

Monty starts working immediately and meets EN1276 and EN14476 standards within 30 seconds of contact time. For best results, we recommend leaving it for 5-10 minutes before rinsing. You’ll notice odour elimination immediately after treatment, with fresh-cut grass fragrance lasting for days.

Can I use Monty with a pressure washer?

We don’t recommend using Monty with a pressure washer during application. Instead, apply with a manual pump sprayer or watering can, allow the minimum 30 seconds contact time, then rinse with a garden hose. Pressure washing can damage artificial grass fibres and isn’t necessary – our formula works perfectly with simple water rinsing.

Does Monty work on astroturf sports pitches?

Absolutely! Monty is used professionally on 3G/4G football pitches, tennis courts, bowling greens, and other sports surfaces. Our multiple certifications (EN14476, EN1276, EN1650, EN13697) make it ideal for shared sports facilities where hygiene is critical. The antibacterial and antiviral properties are particularly important for high-traffic public spaces.

What if the smell comes back after a few days?

If the smell returns quickly, it typically means either: (1) the bacterial buildup is very severe and needs repeated treatments, or (2) you need to strengthen the dilution ratio. Try a stronger mix (1:5 ratio instead of 1:9) and ensure you’re brushing the solution into the infill where bacteria lives. For persistent problems, weekly treatment for 3-4 weeks will eliminate severe buildup. Remember, our label recommends weekly cleaning for optimal results.

Will Monty damage or discolour my artificial grass?

No. Monty is specifically formulated for artificial grass and won’t cause discolouration, staining, or damage to grass fibres. In fact, our De-Brittle Technology actually helps repair UV damage and keeps grass looking newer for longer. We recommend testing on a small area first if you have concerns about a specific grass type, but we’ve had zero reports of damage across thousands of users.

How often should I clean my artificial grass with dogs?

Our label recommends: Clean your artificial grass around once a week, adjusting frequency based on your environment.

Recommended frequency:

• Heavy use (3+ dogs, male dogs, hot climate): Weekly full treatment
• Medium use (1-2 dogs, regular use): Weekly to bi-weekly
• Light use (1 small dog, occasional use): Bi-weekly to monthly
• Between treatments: Rinse affected areas with water daily if possible

Can I use Monty indoors?

Yes! Monty is so safe and effective it’s approved for use in food preparation areas, making it perfect for indoor applications. It’s excellent for indoor artificial grass used in pet areas, display spaces, indoor sports facilities, or any indoor synthetic surface. Always ensure proper ventilation and rinse thoroughly.

What’s the difference between 1L and 5L bottles?

The formula is identical – just the size differs. The 5L bottle offers better cost per litre (approximately 25-30% savings) and is ideal for larger gardens (50m²+), multiple dogs requiring weekly treatment, or commercial use. The 1L bottle is perfect for trying Monty, small residential gardens, or infrequent maintenance cleaning.

Monty has multiple unique advantages:

• Multiple certifications: EN14476, EN1276, EN1276 Listeria, EN1650, EN13697

Customer Testimonials

“Absolute game-changer for dog owners”
“I have 2 Labradors and my artificial grass was RANK, especially in summer. I’d tried everything – vinegar, baking soda, expensive enzyme cleaners from Amazon, even professional cleaning. Nothing worked for more than a couple of days. Used Monty once and the smell was completely gone within a few hours. It’s been 6 weeks and still smells like fresh grass. I use it weekly now as recommended and finally I’m not embarrassed to have people in the garden. Worth every penny!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
– Sarah M., Manchester

“Saved me from replacing £2,500 of artificial grass”
“Was literally about to rip out my artificial grass because the dog urine smell was unbearable. Had quotes for £2,500 for replacement. Decided to try Monty as a last-ditch attempt. Can’t believe the difference. The smell is GONE. Like, completely gone. I use it weekly now and the grass looks and smells better than when it was first installed 3 years ago. Saved me thousands. Should have found this product sooner!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
– Mark T., Leeds

“Works brilliantly on our 3G football pitch”
“We manage a 3G football pitch used by junior teams 6 days a week. Parents were complaining about smell in summer months, especially after rain. Tried expensive industrial products recommended by the pitch installer – nothing worked properly. Monty eliminated the problem completely. The fresh grass scent is brilliant – parents comment on how good it smells now. We use it weekly as part of our maintenance schedule. Much better value than ‘professional’ alternatives that cost 3x as much.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
– David K., Sports Facility Manager, Birmingham

“Perfect for our dog day care facility”
“We have 15-20 dogs daily on our artificial grass play area. Smell was becoming a serious problem. Monty is the only product that actually works with heavy dog use. We apply it twice weekly and the area always smells fresh. The fact it’s certified safe for food prep areas gives us confidence it’s safe for the dogs. Highly recommend for commercial dog facilities.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
– Jennifer S., Dog Day Care Owner, Bristol
