Product Information

PIA is very good if you have a doggy daycare business, and you want to kill all the kennel cough bugs and any nasty things that dogs may be bringing in with them. Although I’m sure you only have fabulous dogs in your doggy daycare.

The one good thing with it though is that actually, if you’ve got puppies, or if you’ve got dogs that have accidents, or dog beds, maybe stinky old dogs, you know how they get. Now, it’s your personal preference really what you use, although if you are washing floors or anything with the cleaners, you CAN’Tuse the PIA if you’ve got a septic tank. PIA will go in the washing machine, it will go in a steam cleaner, and it is just absolutely superb for killing all the bugs and the germs instantly, that might be in your dog beds. And don’t forget, the dog pee is under the grass, so whatever cleaner you use you’ve got to saturate the area. Do it properly, don’t just squirt a bit over the top, and hope for the best, because your grass is still going to stink, and you’ll be phoning me and moaning. Whether or not you can use your pressure washer on fake grass depends on if the grass has infill. Infill is any product that is placed between the blades when the grass is installed, usually to weigh down the turf and prevent it from flattening.If the artificial grass has been installed correctly weeds will not grow through. However, airborne seeds may nestle within fibres and grow on the surface especially around edges of the grass membrane. Because any weeds that germinate will be on the surface level of the lawn, they can be easily removed by hand. Now, this is very different from the bio enzymes, it’s a Biocidal Cleaner. So, whereas the enzymes are very natural, there’s nothing natural about PIA at all. A lot of artificial grass is installed with sand infill, which ensures the artificial blades stand up in an upright position. It's a good idea to brush your fake grass regularly to re-distribute the infill and restore the blades to an upright position. If your artificial lawn doesn’t have infill, then you can use a pressure washer,' she goes on. 'However, we recommend using the widest-angle tip you have, spraying at a shallow angle to help prop the fibres up, and most importantly, keeping the tip of the wand at least 30cm from the ground.'

Washing up liquid will do no harm but might not be strong enough to get rid of the smell and clean it thoroughly,' says Harry. 'Some people use vinegar mixes but there are some ready-made, grass-specific products designed for this use and although they are more expensive, they do a thorough job.'
