Made in the United States and safe for children and pets, it’s an eco-friendly option for slopes, ditches, lawns, and construction zones where seed washout or surface erosion is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the blanket help grass seeds germinate faster?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EZ-Straw blanket creates a microclimate over the seeded area that keeps moisture consistent and reduces surface temperature extremes, both of which help seeds germinate more reliably.
