Artificial Grass Weeds & Pests Protection
The “natural graffiti” of weeds is not a welcome look for the average person, especially after putting in their time and money into creating the perfect outdoor landscape. Aside from being unsightly, weeds also pull out soil nutrients, overshadow other planets and slurp up water. Usually, artificial grass prevents weeds from growing, but you may want to add extra Artificial Grass Weeds & Pests Protection to be safe in some cases.

Also, if you live in an area with high gopher activity, ensuring these underground critters don’t damage your synthetic lawn is a good idea. Hardware cloth can help keep Gophers from digging up through the grass. Install the hardware cloth in the middle of the base fill. Our Installation gives you options to install and prevent weed overgrowth and pest infestation with our Weeds & Pests Protection Cloth.
Weed Barrier Cloth
Weed Barrier cloth is designed to prevent weeds from growing inside your artificial turf and still allows for proper drainage. If your priority is to prevent weed growth in your yard, this fabric will fit perfectly underneath your synthetic grass. Weed Barrier cloth is a spun-bond polypropylene fabric with a hydrophilic treatment that allows more air and water to pass through, thus preventing sunlight and nutrients from reaching the places weeds tend to grow.

- Safe and easy to install
- Suitable for use in flower beds, under walkways, greenhouses, under decks, under artificial turf, and much more
- It comes in a 6’x 300’ Roll.
Gopher Mesh
Choosing the correct Gopher Mesh is very important. A typical chicken/poultry wire or aviary fence is not intended to be buried and will fail quickly. Can use chicken wire, but why invest and install a product that will not last?
We prefer to install a galvanized gopher mesh or hardware cloth with a mesh size of 1/2”x1/2”. We find this ideal because the openings are small and stiff enough to prevent gophers from gaining access to the surface. If they decide to travel to the surface, they will bump their heads on the wire and move along.
Please note that the Gopher Mesh does not inhibit the gophers from burrowing and making their tunnels underneath your artificial grass system. It only helps prevent them from penetrating the surface. Gophers have also been known to chew through the mesh in some cases. Although rare, it has happened. With that said, your artificial grass could experience undulations, dips, or sinkholes due to the tunnels left by the Gophers.

Athletic Fields
Artificial Sports fields can take a lot of damage. As athletes are giving it their all while trying to win a big game or practicing to improve their skills, the field they play on should be just as tough as they are to keep up with their play level. Synthetic grass provides many benefits to indoor and outdoor sports fields and allows athletes to truly give it their all without worrying about what they may be doing to the field they play on every day.
Artificial grass is made to be more durable than natural grass, and this aspect is essential concerning sports fields in Southern California. Synthetic turf can stand up to the hard wear and tear of athletic use, allowing landowners and teams the peace of mind that their field is safe even during the roughest of games.
