Most outdoor odor eliminators are bio-enzymatic. This means that they use live microbes that eat the proteins that cause bad smells. It's a win win, but only if you know how to properly treat your turf.
Here are 4 steps that guarantee you will get the most out of any bio-enzymatic outdoor odor eliminator.
-
Shake the bottle before using it:
You've heard this 100 times but shaking the bottle prevents the ingredients from separating in the liquid. Since most outdoor odor eliminators also have an odor counteractant and a lot of water, shaking the bottle ensures that the ingredients are evenly distributed when you spray it on your turf.
-
Don't use chemicals to treat your turf:
Since the active ingredient in most outdoor odor eliminators is living microbes, it doesn't take a scientist to know that chemicals will hurt them. Make sure to thoroughly hose down your fake grass with water if you have recently used chemicals like bleach to try and clean it before applying an outdoor odor eliminator.
-
Apply the treatment in the evening:
The microbes come alive or rather wake up when their surroundings are diluted with water. This moisture helps keep them alive and active. Direct sunlight is going to dry out your turf quicker and therefore give the microbes less time to eat the pee odor causing proteins. They will also benefit from the midnight dew.
-
Overspray the treated area once more before it dries:
As you know by now, moisture helps the microbes work for longer. Lightly spray the treated turf with hose water just before it is dry. This will extend the life of the microbes and allow them more time to work at getting rid of the smell of urine.
Following these tips will help you get the most out of any bio-enzymatic outdoor odor eliminator.
