Sacramento pet owners love artificial grass because it stays beautiful and evergreen no matter what your furry friends try to do to it. You can avoid brown patches, broken blades, and even pet odor thanks to the convenience of synthetic grass products. By utilizing the incredible pet-friendly turf products available on the market, you can effectively eliminate pet odor and keep your lawn looking and smelling fresh all year long.

Efficient Drainage

One way that artificial grass helps homeowners avoid pet odor is through its highly efficient drainage capabilities. Artificial Turf by Fenix’s turf products all drain at a rate of more than 30 inches of water per hour per square yard, so pet urine will drain through the turf and off of your property in no time. There’s no pooled liquid on the surface of the grass, helping your lawn stay sanitary and smelling fresh.

Antimicrobial Infill

All synthetic turf is installed with infill, a material poured between the turf blades to help them stand upright in your lawn. Specially engineered, pet-friendly turf infill products are now available for homeowners who have four-legged friends they need to accommodate. This non-absorbent, antimicrobial infill can withstand harsh conditions such as pet urine to keep your artificial turf looking as good as new for years to come. This infill captures the ammonia in pet waste and prevents it from turning into a gas, thus preventing odor from escaping. Protecting your synthetic turf from stains, odors, and deterioration will help you protect your investment while keeping your lawn sanitary.

Spot Cleaning

In addition to your artificial grass installation products, there are ways to periodically clean your lawn in order to keep it as fresh as possible. If you notice your pet has left waste on your turf, or if it’s just been a while since you’ve rinsed your lawn down, spend a minute or two going over it with a hose to help drain any leftover waste from your synthetic grass. You can also use turf freshening products specially formulated to clear away pet odor, such as Turf Fresh, for spot cleaning and general upkeep. Products such as these are biodegradable, non-toxic formulas that will leave your lawn smelling fresh and clean without doing any harm to your little ones. The spray can be applied as needed, so it’s a quick and easy way to give your synthetic grass lawn a refreshing spot clean.
