Sanitizing your artificial grass pool surrounds is as easy as following these four steps.
1. Choose Your Disinfectant
Diluted bleach solutions are some people’s go-to disinfectant for synthetic turf installations. However, you can also use alternatives like vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, and commercial disinfectants.
2. Apply a Liberal Coating
Thoroughly spray the disinfectant all over the artificial turf from a standing position until fully coated but not puddled or pooled. Be cautious around any surrounding plants.
3. Let Sit Briefly
Leave the disinfecting solution on the grass for no less than 10 minutes to sanitize properly. It will interact with any microbes on contact.
4. Flush with Water
Once the recommended time has elapsed, flush away all bleach residues by thoroughly rinsing the entire lawn surface with copious fresh water from the hose. Proper rinsing protects beneficial bacteria and avoids irritation.
