Synthetic Lawns Prove to Be Insect-Free for Many Perth Residents

Manufacturer of artificial grass in Perth reveals why artificial lawns are insect-free for many home owners.
Perth, WA, 23 December 2013 - For many home owners with synthetic grass in the Perth area, pesky insects are a thing of the past. Artificial grass is known to have a myriad of benefits, but one that is often ignored or bypassed is that insects are not attracted to artificial grass.
Insects don't tend to congregate in artificial grass because there is no living material. Insects, like most pests, are drawn to areas where they can get food and water easily. Synthetic grass is made of non-living material and most insects require living material to thrive.
Artificial lawns are safer for children and pets due to the absence of harmful insects. Children are less likely to be exposed to spiders or ants, while dogs and cats are less likely to be exposed to fleas on an artificial lawn. Green Planet Grass, a manufacturer and installer of artificial grass based in Perth, provides an artificial grass solution whose insect repelling qualities are enhanced in both the installation and manufacturing processes.
Antimicrobial Manufacturing
Green Planet Grass is manufactured with an antimicrobial agent built into the grass. This keeps bacteria, viruses and fungi away, giving insects less potential to find an appropriate environment. Green Planet Grass also makes a non-sand fill called GPG Play Fill available, which is an inert product and virtually uninhabitable for most insects, such as ticks, fleas and other common pests.
No Weeds
A lack of organic material keeps the insects away. Green Planet Grass treats the excavated area underneath their synthetic lawns with a weed-killer to keep weeds from growing underneath the grass and poking up through it. The treated area is then covered, making it nearly impossible for any seeds to penetrate the area. Ultimately, there are no weeds coming up from underneath a Green Planet Grass artificial lawn.
The Role of Maintenance
Some maintenance is required to keep Green Planet Grass insect-free, but it is minimal. It simply needs to be kept clean and free of debris from trees and plants. If Green Planet Grass is next to a vegetable garden or fruit trees, there will be a bit more maintenance required. Green Planet Grass recommends clearing all debris from living materials such as leaves, twigs or fruit.
A Plethora of Benefits
According to Justin Everley, Director at Green Planet Grass, its insect-free quality is one of many benefits to installing artificial grass: “There are so many benefits to installing synthetic grass that a lot of people don't even notice that they aren't being bitten by insects until a guest mentions it. They are so focused on the fact that they have a lawn that is green 365 days a year, regardless of weather, or that they don't really have to work very hard to maintain it, that not having a lot of insects or other pests is more of a bonus benefit.”
Everley continued: “Green Planet Grass synthetic turf is manufactured in Australia and we are based in Perth. We are a local company with over 4,000 satisfied customers in our region. Our customer feedback indicates that the two most commonly-mentioned benefits are not having to water or mow the lawn.”
Everley concluded, “No watering, no mowing and no insects: what could be better?”
