BioS+ vs BioX: Which Turf Cleaner Do You Need?

BioS+ vs BioX comes down to biology versus speed. BioS+ is an all natural enzyme cleaner that digests the ammonia and proteins in dog urine, which makes it the best long term routine for artificial turf. BioX uses iodine based oxidizing technology to break apart ammonia, sulfur, and proteins on contact, which makes it the fastest way to get odor under control. Most homes with dogs end up using both. Both are pet safe and kid safe.

Key takeaways

• 🧬 BioS+ is the routine. Enzymes digest the odor source, so applying it every 2 to 4 weeks keeps turf smelling like the day it was installed.
• ⚡ BioX is the rescue. Iodine based oxidizing technology breaks apart ammonia, sulfur, and proteins fast when the smell has crossed the line.
• 🤝 They work better together. BioX for immediate relief, BioS+ for lasting control.
• 🧴 Application is easy. The BioSiphon hose end sprayer mixes BioS+ at 30 to 1 while you water.
• 🔄 Saturated turf needs Oxy+ first. A peroxide based reset, then the BioS+ routine.

What does BioS+ actually do?

BioS+ is our all natural enzyme cleaner. Its enzymes break down the ammonia and proteins that dog urine leaves in the infill and backing, which is why the odor stays gone instead of returning in a week. It comes in 32 oz, 1 gallon, and 5 gallon sizes, in Original and Lemon, and because it is a concentrate you dilute it as you apply.

The BioSiphon hose end sprayer makes the routine nearly effortless, mixing at 30 to 1 automatically.

What does BioX do differently?

BioX is built for speed. Its iodine based oxidizing technology breaks apart ammonia, sulfur, and proteins on contact, so it is the one to reach for when guests are coming or the urine smell has become unbearable. Choose from Original, Citrus, Fresh Cut Grass, or Unscented.

Which one should you buy?

If you want one product for ongoing care, choose BioS+. If your main problem is right now, choose BioX. If you have two or more dogs, the honest answer from 25 years of turf care is both: BioX to knock the odor down, then BioS+ every 2 to 4 weeks so it never builds back up.

Turf that has been neglected for a long time may need Oxy+ first, our peroxide based deep reset cleaner. And if odor keeps returning between cleanings, TurFill deodorizing infill controls it at the source. You can compare the whole lineup of turf cleaning products in one place.
