Artificial Grass And Pets: What To Know
Owning a pet is one of the most enjoyable and rewarding relationships you can ask for. There’s a reason why we treat them as a welcomed extension of our families. In the hot summer months of Arizona, keeping up with a grass lawn is expensive and, in many cases, impossible. However, more and more savvy homeowners and commercial businesses are adding turf to their landscapes and are completely satisfied. So what happens when the hound meets turf? Are all the benefits of less water usage and a beautiful yard abandoned? Here is everything you need to know about pets and artificial grass in your Arizona home:
Safe from damage
The biggest concern for most potential buyers is whether or not they will have holes or long-lasting damage from their pets using the turf as they would grass. However, with years of research and trial and error, the makeup of home turf is no longer easily susceptible to a pet using it. So your pups can gnaw and take care of their business on the synthetic grass without unsightly holes or patches appearing. Meanwhile, your investment will continue to bring value to your property for years and years to come.
Easy to clean
You can’t always control where your animal chooses to do their business, but you can ensure that your lawn won’t be the one paying for it afterward. With permeable backing, animal fluids and other moisture run right through the turf, leaving your landscape looking flawless with little to no effort on your part. Additionally, let your synthetic grass specialist know about your furry friends and their outdoor habits when adding in a new lawn. With good consulting, you’ll be left feeling confident about proper care of your lawn and even have a specific place for the pets to use designed for optimal absorption.
No stinky odors
With old-school artificial grass, it was always obvious if a pet urinated on the turf. The odor lingered for months, if not years. Today, turf manufacturing allows for a beautiful, low-maintenance landscape without the hassle of unwanted aromas or puddles. As a result, your lawn should always look and smell great, even if you didn’t lift a finger.
Pets love it
So many pet owners ask if their pets will like artificial grass. Fortunately, care for artificial turf is non-toxic, even compared to some chemicals used on natural grass, and your pets get to reap the benefits. The most important thing is understanding your needs, and your pet will never have to suffer. The funny thing is that pets treat it the same. Pets love the outdoor space, and you don’t need to worry about spots, patches, or anything unsightly caused by man’s best friend using your turf.
