Artificial Grass Maintenance Tips for Fall

Fall is nearly here, which means it’s time for cooler temperatures and possibly some rain. Fortunately, if you have fake grass, there’s not much you have to do to prepare for the coming season. Fake grass has been created to withstand outdoor elements, including rain, wind, and cold temperatures. Still, there are a few things to consider when taking care of your fake grass in the fall. Artificial Turf Supply Commercial & Residential Division offers the following tips on how to maintain fake grass during the fall season.

Eliminate Leaves and Debris

The fall season is when leaves do more than change color; they eventually drop off and get blown by the wind into your lawn. If you have synthetic grass, this means you will need to know how to properly remove these leaves and other debris that the breeze might bring. To get rid of leaves without destroying your turf, use a push broom to broom the turf against the grain. You can also use a rake or blower.

Stabilize the Fibers

It’s recommended to stabilize the fibers of fake grass at least every three months, so a new season is definitely a great time to do this task. The good news is that if you cleaned the turf with a push broom, you accomplished two tasks with one. The push broom not only cleans the turf of leaves and debris, but also stabilizes the fibers.
