Synthetic turf can be a great alternative to natural grass, particularly with our hot climate. There’s no need for watering, no mowing and it always looks lush and green. However, if you do have synthetic grass and a pet that uses the lawn, you may have come across the problem of getting rid of urine odours, even after you have hosed the area down.
One of the reasons why urine on synthetic grass smells stronger than on regular grass is simply heat. Synthetic grass is made of synthetic materials, like plastic, which retains the heat of direct sunlight. In fact, it can get up to 6-10 times hotter than regular plant grass.
To understand why urine is so difficult to remove, we need to be aware of how synthetic grass is laid and what happens to the urine when your pet has visited.
Synthetic grass is usually built on crush rock and sand with small holes in the material to allow for drainage. When urine comes in contact it may seep down through the grass and into the rock and sand layers underneath.
When urine dries, it crystalises and it is these uric acid crystals that remain underneath the grass and are difficult to remove. As soon as there is a bit of heat or humidity, these uric acid crystals (which are the main source of the urine smell) activate and release the urine odour.
Detergents or water alone will not break down these non-soluble uric acid crystals and they will remain, as will the odour. Only a bio-enzymatic formulation found in urineFREE will remove these crystals for good.
