Volm offers Western Handy Straw no-mess seeding mulch with tack. The processed straw in the Western Handy Straw with bonding agent gives straw a tackiness which holds it together, protecting grass seed from heavy washout or wind. Western Handy Straw helps speed up germination while watering less often. Seeding Mulch leaves no mess to clean up, just leave it in place after the seed grows and it biodegrades.
