Care Instructions
Care Instructions
This product is easy to clean using a damp cloth or a dry brush (a toothbrush works well for finer areas). The grass’s natural waxy coating helps it resist liquid spillages, though it's best not to let liquids sit for too long. Occasionally placing the product on a radiator or near a hot Aga can help eliminate bacteria, just ensure it's safe to do so and not exposed to direct heat for extended periods.
