YouGarden 2 x 100L Strulch Straw Mulch in 9kg Bags, Natural Straw Mulch for Gardens Perfect as a Natural Slug and Snail Deterrent, Mulches for Gardens UK

I love this stuff. I started using it spring 2025 after a friend recommended it. Since then, my garden has flourished. I use it in pots and on the ground. It locks in moisture. It helps to compartmentalise your flowers & shrubs. It suppresses most weeds incl that awful mares tale. I haven’t seen a single slug and barely any snails. It feeds the soil with nutrients. It’s such a good buy and an investment in your garden. If you enjoy gardening and are serious about keeping it healthy & looking good, I would recommend Strulch. It’s a lot better than bending down to do the weeding too!

Excellent for keeping slugs and snails at bay in garden bedding and pots. Also really great for suppressing weeds. And keeps my plants hydrated longer as it keeps moisture in. Very pleased with the product. Started using this last year after a friend recommended it. Easy to apply and stays in place. Looks clean and neat. Has a soft straw like appearance. Wear gloves while handling. Has a mild but not unpleasant earthy sweet smell that dissipates over time.

Excellent stuff, it dose exactly what it says on the bag. We have not noticed any slugs or snails since we put it down, weeds have been drastically reduced to just several surface weeds which were easily pulled out. Word of warning if you have never used strulch before, it has a strong smell reminiscent to a brewery, it only lasts for a day or two.

Good stuff but pricey

Natural Straw Mulch has been a life-safer for the plants. It's prevented slugs and snails attacking the young plants. Being a natural straw mulch it has broken down well so has added nourishment to the soil. It looks good and gives the garden a well cared for appearance. Safe to use. Have used Strulch for a few years and have recommended it to others. It's better for the soil than using slug pellets which are full of chemicals. It has a faint fresh odour when the bag is first opened which indicates the product is natural and genuine, and the odour soon disappears. Recommend

This summer I am having trouble with foxes digging deep holes under my new fences. In desperation I filled holes and used Strutch straw mulch all round the perimeter as an experiment, and it worked!.Plants that had partly exposed roots have recovered. The ground looks tidier and earth is holding more water.I have purchased 4 more bags and will spread it around the rest of the garden ..Others have mentioned a strange smell. But I found it quite acceptable. I like this product and will recommend it .

It really does keep the weeds down to a minimum and lasts for at least 12 months. I use at least a 3 inch depth. It provides a mineral enriched mulch which gradually gets pulled down by worms to enrich the soil. Be aware though that you need to measure well as you will probably need more than you think!

Not cheap as a mulch, but excellent results so far. Good moisture retention and looks really good. Just ordered two more bags!!
