Do you know how to clean and maintain pet synthetic turf?  Learn how Gappsi sanitizes and deodorizes your dog run in Smithtown, N.Y.

Pet owners who choose synthetic turf for their backyards often do so because of its durability, cleanliness, and low maintenance requirements. At a residence in Smithtown, NY, Gappsi recently completed the installation of a pet-friendly synthetic turf.  Designed for a family that breeds dogs. This family has a designated dog run area beside their patio.  It includes not only turf but also a secure cage for training sessions and temporary confinement when necessary.

The synthetic turf installed at this residence is 100% permeable, allowing liquids to pass through easily, which is essential for dog runs. It’s a short-pile, easy-to-clean surface engineered specifically for high-use pet applications. However, as with any space frequently used by animals, routine maintenance is crucial to ensure the area remains clean and odor-free.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through the simple process of cleaning and maintaining your synthetic turf using Gappsi’s new Italian-made cleaning product, whether you have a similar dog run or want to keep your artificial lawn fresh and clean.  These steps will help you maintain a safe, pleasant environment for both pets and people.

Why Pet Turf Maintenance Is Important

Synthetic turf, especially in areas designated for dogs, can accumulate bacteria and odors over time. Even the best drainage can’t eliminate the lingering smell of pet urine or the buildup of waste particles. For dog breeders, pet lovers, or anyone with an active dog run, regular sanitation is essential to prevent odor, bacterial growth, and discoloration of the turf.

This is especially true when multiple dogs share the same area, such as at the Smithtown property. Maintaining a clean turf area promotes the health of the animals and ensures a more pleasant overall backyard environment.

Introducing Our New Turf Cleaner: Safe, Effective, and Italian-Made

To solve the everyday challenges of pet turf maintenance, Gappsi now offers a new cleaning and deodorizing solution manufactured in Italy. This powerful product is specially designed to sanitize and deodorize synthetic turf without the use of harsh chemicals. It’s safe for both humans and pets, making it the perfect solution for families, breeders, and pet care professionals.

What sets this cleaner apart is its natural composition and effectiveness. It doesn’t mask odors, it eliminates them while also killing bacteria that might be growing on or beneath the turf fibers. It’s safe and biodegradable, and it’s an environmentally responsible choice as well.

How to Apply the Synthetic Turf Cleaner

Using the Gappsi turf cleaner is quick and straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you maintain your synthetic turf:

1. How to Mix the Solution

You’ll need a garden sprayer or similar tool to apply the cleaner. Mix one part of the cleaning solution with four parts cold water. This dilution is strong enough to effectively sanitize and deodorize the turf without causing damage to the fibers or the drainage system.

2. How to Spray the Turf

Once the solution is mixed, lightly spray it evenly across the turf surface. There’s no need to saturate the area; a light, even coating is all that’s required. A gallon of diluted cleaner should cover approximately 1,000 square feet of turf, which makes this method both cost-effective and efficient.

3. Let the Cleaner Sit

After spraying, allow the cleaner to sit on the turf for at least one hour. This contact time is crucial for the active ingredients to break down odors, eliminate bacteria, and leave your turf smelling fresh.

4. When to Rinse the Area

After one hour, rinse the turf with a light spray of water. There’s no need to pressure wash the turf.  A gentle rinse is enough to remove the cleaner and any debris it has lifted. Thanks to the turf’s permeability, the solution and rinse water will drain away naturally, leaving the surface clean and dry within minutes.

How to Maintain Your Pet Synthetic Turf – Should You Clean Your Turf?

For residential backyards with moderate dog activity, applying the cleaner once a year may be sufficient. However, in high-use areas, such as dog runs or breeder yards like the Smithtown installation, weekly application is recommended. This frequent cleaning ensures the area remains sanitary and odor-free, even with multiple dogs using the space daily.

This is not an expensive process; keeping up with weekly maintenance won’t break the bank. Many homeowners choose to incorporate it into their routine backyard cleaning, making it as normal as watering plants or picking up waste.
