What you think about Strulch. We are always keen to hear what our customers say about Strulch. Thank you.

No weeds

Have used Strulch for a few years now and I have not seen any slugs or snails in the garden. Best of all only the occasional weed. Thanks.

Wonderful stuff!

We're running out & will be reordering asap. Strulch does exactly what we wanted it to do. A marked reduction in slugs & snails and uniform bed coverage. Easy to use & not at all messy.

Lightweight and stays put

Had my doubts whether this would stay put as it's very light but was proved wrong. Easy to use and looks good. No idea if birds would root around in it as they do bark chipping as we live on a brand new housing estate and have yet to see a bird! The only downside is the dog who likes to do a border patrol round the garden and collects bits on her feet and body which then gradually disperse around the house.

Hedgehog highway

Hello Jackie, Thank you for your email, Yes I do have a hedgehog highway in and out of my garden with 3 nesting boxes and 4 feeding stations, which have been in use since Nov 2019 and are still in use, I usually order a whole or half pallet of Strulch, but this year it will be later in the autumn / winter when I get organised to order it.

Hi A few pictures of Strulch in use at Floors Castle Gardens. Pics here show our nuresry area and apple tree line in the Millennium garden. Once Strulch is applied we can be fairly confident that it will stay weed free. Yours Andrew Simmons Head Gardener

Well worth the money

I would thoroughly recommend using Strulch which I have been using for about 4 years. I weed the bed well prior to planting and water the plants in well. I then use a covering of about 4 inches of Strulch over the soil. It has saved me hours of weeding. Instead of having to spend a lot of time weeding, I only have to pull out an occasional one. Slugs and snails avoid the area and there is little need for watering. As well as using it on flower beds, it has been great around strawberries. It is well worth the money and friends and neighbours are starting to use it, too.

Superb service and a good product

Placed my order for a pallet of 25 bags 4 days ago and received delivery today via their transporter Palletways. Superb service end to end, and the delivery driver couldn't have been more helpful.

I tend to alternate mulching of my garden with manure or Strulch every couple of years or so. The manure is used to seriously improve the quality of my clay soil but is very heavy to move. Strulch on the other hand is extremely light and a very good weed suppressant. It costs half the price to buy Strulch in bulk like this and is worth splashing out of only to save your back, laying it down, and months of weeding. I usually mulch in late December when there are few weeds and before my snowdrops and other late Winter bulbs start to like their heads through the ground.

It’s Brilliant!

It's brilliant! The place where I haven't used Strulch weeds have come through and the tilth is not nearly as good. Strulch makes all the difference. Mary Ann Sutherland ( Norfolk)

Another advantage of Strulch

As confirmed Strulch users, we are wondering if you are not understating the positive qualities of your product.

Yes, the mulching benefits are certainly there, but we think we may have discovered another gain. My wife has always enjoyed working with Strulch because of its enjoyable fragrance. But we have noticed something. Squirrels detect buried bulbs using their keen sense of smell. Since we have been using Strulch, we have not lost a single bulb to the aggressive squirrels in our neighbourhood. Our hypothesis is that the positive fragrance of the Strulch disguises the buried bulbs so that the gray rodents cannot locate them.

So we are wondering if other users have mentioned this...and if any research has been done to confirm the finding. We have never seen any mention of this in your advertising. If no research has been done, it might be worth a trial to establish what could be a great benefit to many gardeners.

Many thanks for a great product.

I'm converted

I am completely converted to strulch ! I use on clients beds and borders and it really is great for top dressing pots. Big plus it’s light to carry and use. Great for a mulch around Roses too.

The best mulch I've used

Strulch is best mulch for all-round performance I've used yet. Have tried various barks, coir and straw, and stulch performs better, considering cost as well. I use strulch for containers where I grow veg and for hanging baskets, as well as beds. Worms love the stuff - my containers teem with worms, and it helps greatly with moisture retention in hanging baskets and looks nice as well - the individual pieces are small enough to use it for even very small containers. When moist, it also helps to deter cats from digging in beds...

It's wonderful

Strulch really is a wonder product ! . I have recommended it to all my gardening friends. Hope the orders rush in ..... Claire, Devon

Strulch bags are excellent for rapid compost making

I've had Strulch in 150 Ltr white sacks with holes punched into them. After the Strulch is used up the bags are excellent for rapid compost making. Not being too large they fill up quickly, sealed at top and placed in any odd place around the garden. Worms enter and do their stuff.

More convenient and far quicker than my compost bin which is too big.

I think you should sell them as an additional item in your range for this purpose.

Instantly smartens up borders

Wonderful stuff! I have applied Strulch to a border that runs down the side of my house which is on full view to my neighbours. It has instantly smartened up the entire space and has brought a rich top colour to the soil which can be a very boring grey due to the clay/chalk combination we have here in Hampshire. Hoping Strulch will add some good structure to the soil over time too for the same reason.

A Garden in The Clacton Coastal Strip

I have a garden that is large and over ambitious for the amount of labour available. I find that Strulch saves a lot of weeding and keeps moisture in the soil. I live in the driest part of Britain on the Clacton Coastal Strip.. Sally Hepher
