The popularity of artificial grass for dogs in the U.S. has risen dramatically in recent years, and will likely continue this trend. One unavoidable issue that pet owners will encounter at some point is that dogs treating your turf like a bathroom leads to one thing… it smells!
Microscopic crystals in dog urine build up over time and eventually get lodged in your turf. Smelly turf is embarrassing and frustrating for homeowners that expected a set it and forget it lawn. When dogs are involved, turf requires a bit of TLC to prevent the buildup of odor-causing bacteria.
There are plenty of odor removal choices available, but when all of them claim to be the ‘best,’ how do you know which option to choose? Most products are ‘enzyme-based’ cleaners that get rid of smells by ‘eating’ the bacteria in the microscopic ‘pee crystals.’ Enzyme-based cleaners work quite well most of the time, but not all of the time.
Another option is ‘OxyTurf,’ a peroxide-based cleaner that KILLS the bacteria. OxyTurf is a 1-step cleaner that works in 10 minutes of less and leaves your turf smelling fresh and clean. It’s biodegradable and completely safe for people, pets, and plants. If you’re looking for a simple and cost-effective way to get rid of dog urine odors in your turf, consider OxyTurf!

OxyTurf comes in a variety of containers, including hand-held spray bottles, 4-gallon backpack sprayers, and commercial-sized drums and totes. OxyTurf is applied as a spray for general disinfectant and smell elimination, but can also be used as a spot cleaner for messes left by spills, pets, or any other dense staining/soiling such as grease or grime.
Like real grass, turf comes in contact with dirt, sludge, spills, slobber, sweat, animal droppings and every other type of grime that can be tracked across the ground. Contaminants get lodged in the fibers of your turf and starts to thrive, creating a cozy home for all sorts of harmful gunk!
Keep your turf contaminant-free and safe for your kids and pets with a stabilized enhanced hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-based solution made from biodegradable, Earth-friendly ingredients. Synthetic turf at sports fields, public parks, and golf courses all see lots of contact with sweaty equipment, bodily fluids, and other instances of rough use that can spread contaminants. Turf at dog parks, vet hospitals and kennels are magnets for pets to pick up harmful contaminants from droppings and saliva.
Use the hand-held spray bottle, battery powered sprayer, or backpack sprayer to douse the affected area of artificial grass.
Wait 10 minutes for OxyTurf to penetrate the turf, soak into the base, and get to work eliminating the odor-causing bacteria.
No rinsing or scrubbing is required, so sit back and enjoy your artificial grass with OxyTurf’s signature fresh grass scent!
