Pine Straw Mulch Benefits

Longevity.

Pine straw does not blow or wash away, nor does it break down as fast as hardwood mulch.

Lightweight.

Easy to handle and lighter per cubic foot, bales are easy to carry and cover more area by equivalent weight than most other mulches.

Sustainable.

No harvesting of trees to produce pine straw, and it is all natural.

Soil / Plant Health.

Breathes better, no compaction and allows for better water infiltration; adds organic material and nutrients to soil and helps against new weed growth.

Erosion Control.

Does not float and wash away like hardwood mulch; use it where grass will not grow to hold soil; great for sloped areas, walkways, paths.

Pest Free / Simple.

Does not attract termites. Easy to apply, just grab handfuls and scatter/shake by hand.
