You know, the synthetic stuff that people and replacing their lawns with?
Curious to know what others think? This is clearly a first world problem. First of all we live in SoCal, a virtual desert. Not to mention sky high water costs currently. We'll see if it's even available going forward. So, the plan is currently to live here till they carry us out.
Existing lawn was new when the home first sold in 1980; we bought it in 1982. The lawn has always had grub worms, as has the rest of the neighborhood. In the last few years we are over-run with squirrels and bunnies. Numerous other livestock including 2 golden retrievers, 2 English bulldogs, ants, lizards, spiders, etc. There's a question coming; hang on. Some of the neighbors have put in synthetic lawns in the last couple years. Personally, we don't like the look, it's very hot (black rubber backing absorbs and retains heat), oh (!), and BTW it costs 5 times more than real grass. Probably looking to upgrade / clean up the landscaping in the next couple years.
Question: (I told you I'd get there), What experiences have TSC-ers had? What's your thought process been? What did you end up doing and why? All replies are appreciated!!
