Switching to artificial grass is a game-changer, offering a low-maintenance, lush lawn without the endless mowing and fertilizing. However, even though you’ve retired your lawnmower, a few simple care steps can ensure your artificial turf remains as stunning as the day it was installed. By following these tips, you can protect your investment and keep your outdoor space looking picture-perfect for years to come.
Routine Maintenance for Artificial Grass
Clear Organic Debris
Just like natural grass, artificial turf benefits from regular debris removal. Use a leaf blower to clear fallen leaves, twigs, and other organic materials that could invite mold or mildew. For heavier items, a leaf rake or simple hand-picking will do the job.Revitalize Flattened Areas
In high-traffic zones, artificial grass may flatten slightly over time. A stiff, natural-bristle broom works wonders for fluffing up these spots, restoring the grass to its upright, vibrant appearance.Pet-Friendly Cleanup
If you’re a pet owner, artificial grass is ideal. Over 80% of AGSTURF customers are dog owners or pet-focused businesses like daycare facilities, including those endorsed by the Humane Society. Cleanup is a breeze—simply pick up solid waste and rinse the area with a hose. No lingering odors, no unsightly messes.Handle Spills with Ease
Accidents happen, but artificial grass makes cleanup quick and hassle-free. Whether it’s a spilled drink or food, a quick rinse with water removes residue and prevents stickiness or odors that could attract pests.Weed and Mushroom Control
While rare, weeds may sprout on the surface or edges of your lawn. These can be easily plucked or treated with a safe solution like vinegar or a commercial weed-killer. For mushrooms in damp, shady areas, vinegar is an eco-friendly remedy that eliminates them quickly.
