Will animals eat my fake grass?

I worried about my dogs and I also don't want any wild animals eating away my new turf. Thanks

Hi Oneten,

Great question. Many have often wondered that because megagrass artificial grass products look so lifelike, will that mean animals will want to eat it? The answer is, some animals and pets do chew or bite into artificial grass, just like normal grass. The good news is, our synthetic turf is non-toxic, lead-free, and unlike natural grass, it won't harm animals with any chemicals.

I'm sorry, but the above response is inaccurate. Synthetic turf contains PFAS chemicals which are absolutely harmful to the environment, waterways, land animals and human health. Off-gassing in warm weather means carcinogenic chemicals enter the surrounding atmosphere and the heat produced by synthetic surfaces contributes to the heat island effect in suburban areas. Synthetic turf is also a prominent contributor to the microplastics crisis, with micro and nano plastic particles spread with wear - these particles can enter animal and human systems through skin contact and breathing it in. This product also lasts for around 7-10 years (all the while wearing and losing micro plastic particles) before it ends up in landfill. Please research the dangers of synthetic turf to your pets and your family's health. Some countries have taken steps to ban synthetic turf and return to natural turf due to all the reasons above. There is so much research online that unequivocally proves it is bad news.

Γεια σας, τελευταία ανησυχούσα για τα σκυλιά μου και ταυτόχρονα ήθελα να ενημερωθώ για θέματα προστασίας περιβάλλοντος και κατά τύχη βρήκα https://marathonnews.gr . Αυτό που μου τράβηξε την προσοχή ήταν η ποικιλία άρθρων που καλύπτουν θέματα ζώων, κήπων και προστασίας περιοχών, με σαφήνεια και πρακτικές συμβουλές. Άρχισα να διαβάζω τακτικά και μου άρεσε πώς παρουσιάζονται οι πληροφορίες με τρόπο κατανοητό και χρήσιμο. Τώρα νιώθω πιο ενημερωμένος για την φροντίδα των κατοικίδιων και την προστασία του χώρου μου στην Ελλάδα και μπορώ να παίρνω καλύτερες αποφάσεις.

So here’s what happened, I was scrolling for a reliable way to catch up on local updates and landed on [https://groundwirenews.ca (https://groundwirenews.ca). They had stories about cultural events and social issues in Canada that I hadn’t seen anywhere else. It was refreshing to find reporting that keeps things clear without being too shallow. Now it’s the first site I open when I want to stay informed.
