Yard deodorizing and sanitizing

On grass it typically holds for a few weeks before the smell begins returning, less in peak summer heat. On turf it holds longer because there is no soil reabsorbing residue. Most customers who need it once end up adding it on a recurring schedule rather than as a one-off.

We use enzyme treatment rather than a disinfectant, and we will tell you how long to keep pets off the treated area before we leave. We do not hold a pesticide applicator license and will not apply anything that requires one.

Yard deodorizing is an enzyme treatment we put down right after a scoop. The enzymes feed on the urine and waste residue left in the soil or turf, so the odor source shrinks over the following days instead of being hidden under a scent.

Most of that smell is not the piles. It is urine and leftover residue sitting in the top of the soil, the thatch, or the turf backing. Picking up stops new material from building, but it cannot pull out what has already soaked in.

Yes, and fake grass is where it helps most. Urine has no soil to drain into, so it spreads under the blades and stays there. We apply the product so it reaches that lower layer, and turf yards usually need it more often than lawns do.

Usually not. A grass yard with one dog on a weekly plan often never needs it. It earns its place with several dogs, turf or hardscape, hot inland summers, or a yard that went a long time without cleanup. Add it when you notice a smell.

We quote it for each property, so there is no flat rate to publish. The two things that change the figure are how much ground needs treating and how many months the smell has had to set in. Send both details on the quote form for a real number.

For a lasting result, yes. A scented spray covers the odor for an afternoon and leaves the cause in place. Enzymes work slower and smell like very little going down, but they break the residue apart, so the improvement keeps showing over the next couple of weeks.

Heat speeds up the bacteria and the ammonia release that cause the odor, so a yard that seemed fine in spring can turn sour by July. Warm weather also helps the enzymes work faster, which makes summer a sensible time to add treatment.

No, it always rides along with a scoop. Enzymes sprayed over waste that is still lying there get used up on the pile and never reach the ground below. So we clear the whole yard first, then treat the spots your dog really uses.
