How Artificial Grass Makes Pet Cleanup Easier Year-Round

Muddy paw prints, patchy lawns, and endless cleanup are part of the deal when you own a pet, especially any kind of dog. While natural grass creates a sufficient surface for dogs to play, poop and live on, it is not the ideal choice. A tougher surface, like artificial grass for dogs, can help minimize messy paws and help make cleaning up after your pet significantly easier year-round. Synthetic turf installation will help prevent your dog from digging or lounging in their own bodily fluids. You just need to ensure that you select a top-quality option designed for pets.

Here is how artificial grass can help make pet cleanup easier.

The Common Struggles of Pet Owners with Natural Lawns

Most pet owners let their dogs play in their backyard on a daily basis because it is a larger open space that allows their pets to play freely without damaging any valuables. However, there are issues that arise with this.

• Mud and Dirt Problems: Rain or moisture outside can make your grass muddy, and as your dogs play around, they can end up with muddy paws that can get tracked inside. This can leave a musty smell in your home and result in poor odours.
• Damage from Urine and Digging: Letting your pets play outside can damage your natural grass. As dogs dig, chunks of grass and dirt may be dislodged from the ground. Pet urine can also kill and stain natural grass.
• Time and Cost of Maintenance: When pets damage your natural grass, you may find that you are spending excess time and money maintaining it.

How Artificial Grass Simplifies Pet Cleanup

Artificial grass for pets is a comprehensive solution for messy pets that play outside. Synthetic turf:

• Allows for Easy Waste Removal: Solid pet waste will not cling to the blades of grass, meaning that when it is disposed of, there will be minimal residue left on your grass. 
• Has a Quick Drainage System: Synthetic turf offers excellent drainage capabilities since it is installed over a layer of infil. This will allow water and urine to flow through easily, preventing them from pooling on the surface. 
• Is Stain and Odour Resistance: Echoing Green’s quality artificial grass for pets is naturally stain and odour resistant. All you need to do is rinse it off periodically to keep things fresh.

Year-Round Benefits for Pet Owners

• No mud inside your home, regardless of what time of year it is.
• Green lawn all year long. Artificial turf will never fade or flatten, even after your pets use it. 
• Pets can enjoy outdoor time without damaging the surface of your grass.
• The lack of dirt under artificial turf will reduce the number of bugs, pests and fleas.
