Aside from removing leaves and other organic debris, there may be occasions when your artificial grass might require some other type of cleaning. For example:
- Mildew is rare, but it could appear if conditions are just right. Clean it with vinegar or another common household product, then rinse.
- Weeds are also rare, but it is possible for seeds to sprout on the top or your grass (inside the infill) or along the border. You can give them a pull, or you can use Round-Up™ or a similar weed killer. No worries about the chemicals damaging your fake grass.
- Hose off sticky spills as quickly as possible, so they don’t attract bugs or dirt.
- Spilled paint? Wipe if off using paint thinner on a soft cloth, then rinse.
- It is possible for faux grass to melt, although it will never flame up and burn. An errant ember from your fire pit or BBQ, a 4th of July sparkler, or a fallen candle from your party table can all cause a melted spot. It’s not necessarily a big deal, but it’s not a DIY project, either. Call us, and we’ll send out a Heavenly Greens expert to handle the repair.
- Stains? Never! It’s virtually impossible to stain artificial turf.
