I have had Global Syn Turf installed in my yard for 4 years now. Some comp0anies say that artificial turf is no maintenance, however that is not true. Synthetic Grass is amazing and I would never do without it, but there is some maintenance on occasion. For instance, if you spill something on the artificial turf you can use a shop vac to suck up dry spills. You don't want to get the shop vac to close because you don't want to suck out the infill. A leaf blower will be your best friend. If you get leaves or debris on your turf you can use a leaf blower to blow things off. One point to mention, don't ever set the leaf blower down on the artificial turf as the motor could burn the grass. If by chance you ever get weeds just spray it with Round-Up and pull the weed. The weed killer will not hurt or discolored the turf. Artificial turf is great for pets, but there is some maintenance to be done. First, you need to rinse the grass with a hose on occasion. After the dog defecates on the turf, let it dry a bit and scoop it up with a scooper. Feel free at the end of the week to use a power sprayer to spray the turf and clean hard to clean areas. Most important is to disinfect the artificial turf with a Pet Disinfectant that is made for pet feces. I use the pet version of Simple Green. Don't dilute it, spray it on and don't be shy, really drench the artificial turf with the chemical. Let it soak for an hour or two and then come back and rinse real good with a power sprayer.
Now do you see what I mean that artificial turf is very low maintenance, however you do need to do some maintenance on occasion. Thank you Global Syn Turf for my great artificial turf and the great maintenance instructions.

Read Answer: Should I install your artificial grass myself? And how?
Artificial grass is made of plastic: Polyethylene and Polypropylene, therefore, generally speaking, animals such as rabbits won’t eat it. We haven’t heard any of claims of that animals eating turf, even though some naughty ones might dig and pull the fibers on rare occasions. I will suggest you to take a very close look at the areas where you see the droppings and check out if your turf fibers being short or missing, if the turf looks normal, you won’t need to worry about it. Please feel free to contact us if you have further questions by phone (877 796 8873) or email ([email protected]), thank you.

Read Answer: What is the difference between astroturf and artificial grass?
I am not sure if I understand your question correctly, anyway, there are two possible scenarios here: installing artificial grass on top of the sandy area or installing artificial grass in an area that can be sandy. It is an easy answer yes if you live in an area that can be sandy with winds and etc., as long as you prepare the base correctly, it will be perfectly fine for sand to get on the artificial grass. If you are referring to if you can install artificial grass on a sandy base, the answer is NO. The artificial grass will be as good as its base: the base preparation is very critical for a good installation. Sandy base will be too loose and not solid enough for artificial grass, if artificial grass is installed over sandy area, you will very possibly see wrinkles, ripples, waves and dents on the grass surface, such issues not only destroy the appearance of the lawn, but also present tripping hazards. Even in a sandy area you still can install artificial grass by properly following our installation guidelines, you just can’t simply put artificial turf on top of sandy surface.
