FAQ

How to are straw bales used for erosion control?

Straw bales can be used in erosion control by creating an environmentally friendly temporary barrier that helps slow down the flow of water and prevent soil erosion. They are most commonly used for controlling erosion on slopes, hillsides, and other areas where soil is prone to washing away.

Use straw bales for slopes that have sandy or loamy soils, lower water flow, and moderate slopes, between 2:1 and 4:1
