Episode: 7
Presenter: Nigel Ruck
Air Date: 3 October 2026

Nigel teams up with turf expert Joe Rogers from Lawn Solutions Australia to share some simple tips for keeping your lawn healthy, lush and better equipped to handle pet damage.

• Dog urine can cause noticeable brown or burnt patches on lawns, particularly where dogs regularly use the same area.
• Flushing affected areas thoroughly with water can help dilute the urine and minimise damage to the grass.
• Damaged areas should be repaired quickly to prevent bare patches from becoming established and to help the lawn recover.
• Dense, healthy turf is better able to withstand regular use from pets and recover from minor damage.
• For larger or severely damaged areas, replacing the affected section with fresh turf is a quick way to restore the lawn and get it looking healthy again.
• With the right care and a dense, healthy lawn, you can minimise pet damage and keep your lawn looking its best throughout spring.
