In reply to Minh. While salt can be used on artificial turf, it is generally not recommended. Over time, the residue from the salt can build up and reduce proper drainage through the backing material.

In reply to Diana. Your best bet is to rake the pine needles off of the artificial grass. Be sure to use a plastic rake, since metal rakes can damage the backing material. If you find that you have pieces of pine needles that are too small for the rake to pick up, you can also used a soft-bristled brush or broom to remove debris from your lawn.

I had artificial grass, including a putting green installed about 2 years ago. Everything was great until a contractor put in a small wall with stucco covering near the putting green. He spilled many small spots of stucco on the putting green. I have tried soap and then Goo Gone with a brush but the spots still remain. When I put water on the green, the spots go away but come back when the putting green dries out. Is there anything I can use to get rid of the stucco spots on my putting green?

How do you get pine needles off artificial turf.

The daycare that my son attends has play sand as their playground ground cover. I would pay to replace it if I could afford it. My son has a couple tablespoons of sand in his shoes every day and gets in his pants pockets. I can wash a pair of his socks and then hit them on the table and still have sand come out of them, same with his shoes. Can not stand the play sand.

If it gets snowed and icy in the winter, can salt be used on artificial grass to melt the snow and ice away or will the salt damage the artificial grass?

My artificial grass in the back yard is dipping and forming about 4 to 5 ft./diameter drop, maybe an inch or so deep. I pulled the turf back and filled it with sand, but it has re-appeared after about a 1-1/2 years. Any suggestions? Thanks

Is there a specific kind of plant that dogs are attracted to? I’m hoping to plant some planters with something that my dogs will gravitate toward and do their business by.

Regarding the wood chips. I believe cedar chips actually repel fleas and ticks. I use them in my dog run and my dogs never have a problem with fleas. I also have no problems with them eating them or getting slivers.

They sell a product on-line that is made from cedar and it repels fleas and ticks. I believe it’s called Cedarcide.

I wish I saw this article last year when designing my backyard! I layed flagstone with stepable Thyme in between. The thyme did not hold up too the dog urine but it looked great while it lasted. It is still great around the boarder but I need to redo the main yard now. Thanks for the suggestions.
