What Customers Are Saying
Customers appreciate the sealed packaging and convenient transport with reduced mess compared to loose bales, and many praise its cleanliness. However, significant concerns emerge around contamination—reviewers frequently report sticks, pine cones, leaves, dirt, and sand embedded in bales, falling short of the advertised 99% stick-free claim. Coverage also disappoints some, who find one compressed bag does not equal two traditional bales as claimed. Despite these drawbacks, most customers value the convenience and cleaner appearance enough to recommend it, though quality consistency remains inconsistent.

Will buy agsin
Would RecommendThe packages of these pine needles were much cleaner than the open bales of needles I have used in the past. This year I bought/put out 30 bags/packages. .

For some reason, spreading seems less work.
Easier to use than square or round bales, more straw than square bales and neater to use.

It goes a long way

Pine needles allows rain and sun to penetrate
Would RecommendThis is a great solution where large trees block sun and the grass is thin and foot traffic is constant causing muddy areas. Just sprinkle pine needles over bare spots. Now you can walk over bare spots and NO muddy shoes. Hooray!
