Scotts® EZ Seed® Dog Spot Repair has a special salt neutralizer formula that minimizes the effects of salts from dog urine and repairs up to 100 dog spots in your lawn. Dog Spot Repair Sun and Shade consists of a combination of high performance grass seed, mulch that expands to surround the seed, a soil amendment that repairs areas burned by dog urine, tackifier to help keep seeds from washing away and a protectant to help keep seeds safe.
There are three easy steps to success:
1) prep the area by removing dead grass and loosening hard soil,
2) evenly apply EZ Seed® so the area is mostly covered but bare ground is still visible, and
3) saturate with water until no more water is being absorbed and seed turns dark brown.
When EZ Seed® begins to turn light brown, it's time to water again. Plant seed in the spring or fall when daily average soil temperatures are consistently between 55°F and 70°F, or air temperatures between 60°F and 80°F. For best results, keep kids, pets, and lawn mowers off newly planted seedlings until the grass is 3 inches high.
Evolve Organic Dog Spot Preventgranular fertilizer is derived from feather meal, bone meal, calcium sulphate, kelp and sulphate of potash.
Did you know that your lawn prefers a pH range of 6.8 to 7.5? Depending where you are, soil typically has a pH of 7.3 to 7.8 (which your lawn can adapt to). When dog urine, which typically has a pH of 8 or higher, is introduced to the soil your lawn cannot tolerate the dramatic pH increase in that concentrated area.
EVOLVE Organic Dog Spot Prevent works for your lawn in two ways:
1. EVOLVE Organic Dog Spot Prevent reduces the overall pH of your soil to approximately 7 so that the impact of the higher pH urine has much less of an impact to your lawn
2. EVOLVE Organic Dog Spot Prevent also absorbs urine on impact and will then slowly introduce it to your soil further reducing it's ability to increase the pH of your soil
In order to lower and maintain the pH of your soil, EVOLVE Organic Dog Spot Prevent has to be applied three times per year for best results - spring, mid summer and fall.
