Fake grass

Postby Whatever » Tue Feb 27, 2024 2:12 pm

Well… I didn’t think the day would ever come but the constant mud from dogs and kids running around in the garden, there aren’t enough hours in my day to clean the kitchen floor as often as I have to. I’ve always been sniffy about fake grass but think I might be prepared to eat humble pie. So - recommendations please? I’ve seen EASI_GRASS vans around but any other companies of note? Also - environmental issues? Would love to hear other people’s thoughts and if you had it done did you regret it? Thanks

Yeah they are awful for the environment and can't be recycled
On the other hand - no mud and kids play outside a lot more year round

We have fake grass and I regret it. What with dog pee/poo, fox pee/poo and neighbours cat pee/poo, I find it really unhygienic no matter how quickly I pick up the poo or wash it with one of those outdoor wet vacuums.

In the summer I’m having it pulled up and I’m going to pave it all instead so I can jet wash when needed.

Please get grass. Its good for wildlife and lovely under the feet and cooling in the summer heatwaves.

Please keep your grass - the birds need it! And it will keep you cooler in the summer, with paving or fake grass you will roast. And have you thought of a Hug Tug? They grab the dirt & are washable, lots if designs & sizes & they just might save your sanity!
