Try Curlex SFW Wattles if you want a wattle as dense as straw, but you do not want to worry about the mess, species of seeds you will be introducing to your project, or wildlife destroying the product. Curlex SFW Wattles answer all the concerns of straw wattles, while out performing them too.
Curlex SFW Wattles are designed to be dense like straw wattles, thus they pool water unlike Curlex® Sediment Log® that allow water to filter through their porous matrix.
Straw wattles are very common, but they come with some inherent draw backs as experienced by those who have used them before. Straw wattles contain agricultural straw fibers that contain seeds and the small dusty fibers commonly fall out of the containment netting. Don’t be fooled – straw wattles may be certified weed seed free, but they still contain seeds. On the other hand, Curlex SFW (short fiber wood) Wattles are manufactured with seed free excelsior fibers.
Typical Applications
- On hillslopes to break up slope length and overland flow
- Across channel bottoms to pool water and reduce flow velocities
- Any other applications where straw wattles are used
