“Generally omitted is the fact artificial turf fields need pesticides and disinfectants to prevent or eliminate mold, bacteria and other hazards that would otherwise be biodegraded by the natural environment of turfgrass fields.”

“Many non-professional [artificial turf] fields are not properly cleaned or disinfected.”

What cleaning & disinfection is performed on your community’s artificial turf fields?

Was irrigation even installed?

MYTH:
An artificially created surface is more sterile.

FACT:
Materials used for synthetic turf fields & infill carry harmful bacteria & trap unsanitary body fluids, opening way for infection. Chemicals used for sanitation can create additional problems.
