Ingredients
Urine-resistant grass seed blend. Two turf-type tall fescues and one perennial ryegrass, selected from 160+ varieties tested to grow back strong in high-traffic pet areas.
Slow-release nitrogen fertilizer (1-0-0 NPK). Feeds new seedlings gradually so roots establish before the top growth takes off.
Recycled paper mulch. Holds moisture around seeds and keeps them in place while they germinate. Made from recycled materials, so it breaks down naturally.
How to use
Best results come from seeding when temps are between 55 and 75 degrees F, typically spring and fall.
- Rake the area. Remove dead grass and debris so seed makes contact with soil.
- Apply evenly. Use 1 cup per 1 sq ft for bare spots, or 1 pound per 15 sq ft for thinning areas.
- Water lightly. Give the area a gentle soak right after applying.
- Keep it moist. Water lightly once or twice daily for the first 2 to 3 weeks.
- Hold off on mowing. Wait until new grass reaches about 3 to 4 inches before the first cut.

Good but requires a lot to fill in.
I used some of this product earlier this year to fix pee burn spots from previous homeowners dog to good success. I used some remaining to treat an area of grass I killed with an outdoor trashcan. The photo is from what I had left. I should have used more to make it fuller but ran out. Hopefully you can see that it still fills in nicely.
Was this review helpful?Healthy lawn restored
I’m happy with how Pet Lawn Bare Repair has brought back life to my lawn. It has helped restore my lawn to a healthy green lawn without brown spots.
Was this review helpful?So far, so good... be sure to give it a good shake!
Had some pet spots in the yard, so I put down some Pet Lawn Bare Repair about 2-3 weeks ago. Prior to doing so, I cleared out the dead grass and aerated the spot. I'm already starting to see some grass growth, which is great! I used this in a couple of spots in the yard. The only reason for the 4 stars is because I think I needed to shake up the mixture before spreading it out, as I feel like some spots are doing better than others.
Was this review helpful?Works well
I used this spot repair this spring to help fill in spots left over the winter by two large dogs. It worked as well as any other spot reseeding product I’ve used in the past. Price is inline with others. It did its job.
Was this review helpful?Great product
After a few months of struggle, I was finally able to get many bare spots in my backyard with the help of this product.
Was this review helpful?No growth
Spread and the container contained a lot less than I was anticipating. It has been around 3 weeks and I've seen 0 seedling growth, just the blue remnants of mulch. Disappointed it didn't work.

Hello Erik, we apologize for the disappointment you've experienced with the lack of seedling growth. Thanks for sharing this, that’s a tough spot to be in after putting in the effort. Three weeks with no germination is definitely not what we want to see. A couple things could be at play here. Grass seed typically needs consistent moisture to sprout, especially in those first couple weeks. If the soil dried out at all, seeds can stall or fail to germinate. Timing matters too, since most grasses establish best in cooler temps like spring or fall, and can struggle in heat. For a quick reset, try loosening the top layer of soil, reapplying seed, and keeping the area consistently moist with light daily watering until you see sprouts. Once it germinates, you can shift to deeper, less frequent watering to build strong roots. We want this to work for you, not leave you staring at blue mulch. If you’re up for it, share a bit about your temps and watering routine and we can help dial it in so you actually see that growth come through
Was this review helpful?This Stuff Doesn’t Work At All
I’m a big fan of Sunday products but this stuff is garbage! It’s been a month and I still have neon blue clumps of mulch-seed all over my lawn. No actual grass grew in the bare spots but a million weeds have sprouted! Wish I could get my money back - I bought 3 bottles - complete waste of money. If you need me, I’ll be outside raking our lawn of the neon blue mulch that never disintegrated.

Was this review helpful?Do not buy. Waste of money
I’ve bought this twice thinking maybe I did something wrong the first time and got the exact same poor results. Nothing is growing. Only the blue stuff is sticking around and clumping. I watered twice a day for 10 days and nothing.

We're sorry to hear that this was your experience with Sunday! There are a few factors that may have affected your seed germination. 1. Applying the correct rate (or amount of seed). By over-application, we're referring to applying outside of our labeled and recommended seed rates. Over-application of seed can result in too much seed in a single area and cause it to not germinate successfully. 2. Watering correctly is critical. The soil needs to be moist, but not saturated, until grass has germinated. If it gets dried out even for a few days, it may not grow from the soil. 3. Germination rates should be about 7-21 days, but can be more if conditions are not quite right.
Was this review helpful?Useless
This did absolutely nothing for my lawn. In fact, I think it looked worse after I removed the mostly dead urine spots and seeded with this, as the seeds never took.

Questions & answers
3 questions
Question: Does adding straw over it help to keep the product in place? We have had a lot of storms/high winds lately.
Louisa D.
Our Bare Repair products contain mulch, so additional mulch should not be needed.
Question: Is this product safe for dogs shortly after application?
Louisa D.
Dogs can re-enter the area but we do not recommend allowing any pets to ingest the product. For best results, limiting the traffic in areas where you're attempting to grow new grass will result in better germination.
Question: What type of grass is this product for?
Louisa D.
This product contains tetraploid perennial ryegrass and select tall fescue.
