Wattle Erosion Control Products
Sediment and Erosion Control Wattles
Question: I am interested in wattle erosion control products and I would like to know more information about them. Specifically, where can they be used, what sizes are available, and what they are made from?
Answer: Erosion control wattles are an extremely versatile product that has been used in a wide range of erosion and sediment control applications, including the following:
- Erosion Control Along Stream Banks
- In Low Flow Streams such as a Check Dam
- Along Construction Entrances for Sediment Control
- Curved Around Drains as a BMP
When compared to other natural fiber products, such as coconut coir logs, these wattles are designed with a lower density that allows them to filter water and other materials as they pass through the wattle. This is ideal for areas such as storm drains or inlets, as the wattles help to filter out sediment and prevent items from entering the drain system.
