For a more thorough clean, give your fake lawn a spray down with cold water from the garden hose. This will help to remove more stubborn dirt.

But don’t be tempted to use a knife or anything sharp to scrape or lever sticky spills from drinks or food. This could damage it. Instead, opt for something blunt. A toothbrush could do the trick.

This should be done on a monthly basis to make sure your artificial grass always looks in tip-top condition and to help it last a long time.
