To get your artificial grass ready for the summer months, it is important to disinfect and clean it. While maintaining artificial grass can be a straightforward task, disinfection should not be overlooked, especially if you have pets. At Econatura, we specialize in artificial grass installation in Murcia and know the best way to disinfect artificial grass.
How to Disinfect Artificial Grass
It’s no secret that maintaining artificial grass involves periodic care, although it is typically minimal. To disinfect artificial grass, the necessary measures should be taken to prevent damage.
Steps to Disinfect Artificial Grass
Before starting the disinfection process, it is advisable to brush the grass to remove leaves, impurities, dirt, or insects that may be on the surface. For effective disinfection, use enough water and neutral products since artificial grass, like many other materials, does not tolerate abrasive substances such as bleach.
To spray water on your artificial grass, you can use a hose or a pressure washer to allow water to penetrate the grass better.
Afterward, allow it to dry and use a product to protect it and maintain its strong and vibrant color.
Advantages of Disinfecting Artificial Grass
- Delaying wear and tear.
- Avoiding infections with its use.
- Preventing future repair costs.
- Promoting a pleasant aroma.
Cautions When Disinfecting Artificial Grass
Applying disinfectant products to artificial grass can worsen the product if not done correctly. Therefore, we recommend following certain recommendations:
- If the artificial grass only has dust, use a hose with water and a brush to remove it. No additional products are needed.
- If you have pets and the grass has been soiled by them, you can use water and soap to clean and disinfect it.
- If you notice something adhered to the grass, you can use ice and high-pressure water to help detach it.
- Be cautious when applying chemical products on artificial grass, as some may cause color loss or other issues affecting its quality. We mentioned bleach as an example.
- Always consult with a specialized professional like Econatura before applying any chemical product to your artificial grass.
