How Artificial Grass Keeps Pets and Homes Mud-Free

A big frustration we hear from pet owners is the challenge of keeping natural lawns in top condition with rambunctious pets running about. The second biggest frustration? Constantly having to clean muddy paw prints trekked in from outside. With nearly 33% of UK households owning a dog and 27% of individuals calling cats their favourite animals, it’s no surprise these frustrations are a common problem for many across the country.

We all want to keep our furry best friends happy and our living room floors spotless. That’s why choosing a clean, resilient, and mud-free solution is so important. Artificial grass is quickly becoming the go-to choice for pet owners across the UK, thanks to its durability, low-maintenance appeal, and consistently pristine appearance.

The Problem with Mud

The UK is famous for its frequent rainfall and damp conditions. In fact, in 2023, there were approximately 171.5 days of rainfall. Unfortunately, this provides the perfect recipe for muddy gardens, especially in outdoor spaces that receive heavy foot traffic.

So, what happens when your pets are thrown into the mix? A muddy chaos! Prolonged wet weather often saturates the ground, causing soil to become waterlogged and prone to damage. For traditional surfaces, this means pathways become a slippery mess and muddy pits where your pets have been digging.

The result is muddy paws and dirty shoes being tracked into your home, leaving a trail of mess behind. Mud often clings to your pets’ fur, underbellies, and paws, transferring dirt onto hard-to-clean surfaces like carpets. While regular cleaning is part of life with pets, wiping muddy paws every time they come inside can quickly become a tiresome and repetitive chore—especially if your pet loves spending time outdoors.

Why Artificial Grass is the Solution

No More Mud:

The next time it rains, you can be confident knowing that your pet will remain squeaky clean when running about outside – although you may have a wet dog on your hands. Our Easi-Pet eliminates exposed soil, the root cause of mud. This ensures there’s no mud for your pets to track inside, keeping your floors, carpets, and furniture free from dirt. The durable surface of Easi-Pet also prevents your pets from digging up soil, further eliminating the possibility of muddy paws. Whether it’s a quick romp in the rain or a day of play in the garden, you can rest easy knowing your furry friend will stay clean and your home will stay tidy.

Pet-Friendly Design:

We understand that giving your furry friends the perfect outdoor space is your top priority. Our pet-friendly range is designed with polypropylene high-strength yarn, providing a lawn that resists damage from constant use and active pets. What’s more, artificial turf’s versatility makes it easy to shape and fit the layout of your garden, whether it’s a large backyard or a small patio. This allows you to design a space that caters to both your pet’s needs and your design preferences.

It’s Low Maintenance:

There’s no getting around it – dogs love digging. Unfortunately, this can be frustrating if you have a natural lawn. Damaged and unsightly brown patches can be a common problem for these surfaces, especially with active pets running around, digging, or relieving themselves in the same spots.

Pet waste and dirt are easily washed away with a simple rise, with no mud in sight thanks to excellent drainage. This means you’ll never have to contend with a smelly backyard, ensuring your lawn stays clean and hygienic with minimal effort and no mud!

Allergy Friendly and Toxic Free

Pets are naturally curious and have a habit of getting into any and everything in your garden. Unfortunately, natural surfaces often require harmful chemicals such as pesticides and herbicides to maintain its luscious appearance – something that doesn’t bode well for your pet if they love spending time outdoors. Artificial grass requires no harmful chemicals to maintain its vibrant appearance, and is manufactured with non-toxic materials to ensure extra peace of mind. All our Easigrass products are hypoallergenic, which help eliminate allergens that can irritate their skin, paws and respiratory systems.

They Won’t Know The Difference

A big reason pet owners are apprehensive about installing artificial grass when they have pets is that they’re concerned they won’t like the sensation of synthetic turf. Whether lounging in the sun or racing around, the texture of artificial grass feels and looks just like the real thing. Easigrass is designed with your pets’ comfort in mind, with fibres that are so soft underfoot that they won’t even know the difference! As an added bonus, Easigrass’ porous backing ensures excellent drainage for those rainy days, making sure you won’t have to contend with muddy paws and fur.
