If you’re a pet owner with artificial turf, keeping it clean and odor-free is a top priority—but using bleach isn’t the solution. While bleach might seem like a strong disinfectant, it can actually damage your turf, harm your pets, and introduce unnecessary chemicals into your outdoor space.
Why Bleach Is a Problem
Bleach can discolor or weaken the synthetic fibers of artificial turf, shortening its lifespan. More importantly, it leaves behind harsh chemical residues that can irritate your pets’ paws or skin—and in some cases, cause respiratory discomfort if inhaled. Bleach runoff also poses risks to surrounding plants and the environment. So what’s the alternative?
Hydrogen Peroxide: The Pet-Safe Power Cleaner
Hydrogen peroxide is a safer, more eco-friendly option that works through oxidation. It naturally breaks down odor-causing bacteria and organic waste without harmful side effects. PurOxy’s formula uses stabilized hydrogen peroxide to ensure powerful cleaning while remaining completely biodegradable and non-toxic. That means no harmful residue—just water and oxygen left behind.
Step-by-Step Turf Cleaning
Start by removing any solid waste from the turf. Next, spray the affected area with PurOxy, making sure to cover it evenly. Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes so it can break down bacteria and odors. There’s no need to rinse—PurOxy dries clean and leaves your turf looking and smelling fresh.
Keeping Turf Fresh Long-Term
For best results, spot-treat high-traffic areas weekly and do a full turf cleaning monthly. A garden sprayer or power sprayer can help make the process faster for larger yards. With regular use, you’ll keep bacteria and odor buildup at bay—without ever reaching for bleach.
