"Can you wash artificial grass with detergent?" "Do I need to dry my artificial lawn?" You may encounter many problems with the maintenance of artificial grass, so we provide a useful list of some key things to avoid when cleaning artificial grass, as well as the reasons.
● For artificial grass tools, do not use sharp objects that may cut or tear artificial grass. If you want to pry something sticky or dry from your grass, use a putty knife or blunt thing.
● Do not use irritant chemicals on the grass to remove sticky substances - this may damage the plastic. Instead, use detergent, half vinegar and water or a professional synthetic grass cleaner. This also applies to pesticides! Just use a hose to flush out any small animals.
● If you want to use stronger things on stubborn patches, please try patch testing in corners or invisible places of the grass to see if chemicals react with the grass.
● Don't heat your lawn. The hose will dry naturally when it comes down.
● Do not use household vacuum cleaners on artificial lawns. This may not apply to grass or vacuum and may actually damage them. Use a garden vacuum cleaner instead.
