How To Stop Pet Odor In Dog Parks And Pet Relief Areas
Pet relief areas concentrate urine and feces in a small footprint, and the porous turf used in most installs becomes a reservoir. Hose-down alone rehydrates the urea and releases more ammonia.
Turf is the problem and the solution
Antimicrobial turf with a drainage backing rinses cleaner than concrete. Pair it with a sub-surface deodorizer that activates with each rinse.
Add a perimeter mister
A low-pressure misting line around the perimeter releases encapsulant on a schedule, holding the airspace neutral between cleanings.
Don't use bleach
Bleach denatures the turf antimicrobial and damages the drainage layer.
