It worked perfectly! I read that if you plant seeds late enough in the fall they lay dormant until spring. Even better! So I got another roll and put down a larger section this year. The mesh is basically just fish line so depending on what shoes or boots you wear it can trip you up so you have to be careful. The dogs don't seem to mind, however. Also, it didn't really biodegrade much so I had to fill the trashcan with it in the spring, unfortunately. Also, the landscape staples didn't come up with it so after a number of years of application there will be a substantial number of staples left in the ground. Last year was first attempt at any kind of solution so I have nothing to compare it to. Still, its effectiveness exceeded my expectations in terms of reducing mud tracked in the house and supporting new grass growth (under a big tree.) BTW, I tested raking in grass seed versus just sprinkling over the ground and it didn't make enough of a difference to warrant the extra work. Just spreading seed was sufficient. The dogs ran over the area multiple times a day which also didn't seem to have a negative effect. Review: Great for difficult places to grow grass - I seldom write reviews of products but I’m making an exception for this product, which has worked very effectively for me. I had two locations in my yard that would not grow grass successfully despite several annual efforts. The one in my front yard was a knoll-even when I roughed up the dirt and worked in the grass seed and fertilizer, watering washed most of it away. For this year’s grass planting I wanted to try something new and decided on this erosion control blanket to hold the seed and fertilizer in place. It took a bit of time to lay out the blanket, but it turned out to be worth my efforts. This year I had a very nice stand of grass that is still looking good at the present (October); this was a place that formerly looked good at first but turned bare by July. The second one was in my backyard which was not only on a slope but received direct sun all day long. Having had success with the blanket in my front yard I laid it down over my seed and fertilizer in the back yard-it has again produced a sturdy stand of grass. Not only did the blanket hold the seed and fertilizer in place but watering took a minimum of time and water, as the blanket held the moisture; I started with two 20-minute waterings per day and after a couple of weeks was able to reduce watering to15-minutes once a day. If not for the blanket, I would have been out there off and on all day long to keep the new grass from drying out in the direct sun. The fiber material in the blanket dissipates, so no removal is necessary. In sum, I highly recommend this product. As the saying goes, your mileage may vary, but this blanket worked great for me. ## Features - Aspen Wood Fiber Blanket: Made from natural curled aspen wood excelsior with long fibers distributed evenly throughout the blanket to support soil retention on disturbed ground areas - Single Net Construction: Features a photodegradable top net designed to hold fibers in place during installation on slopes, embankments, ditch bottoms, and grading sites or roadside drainage areas - Supports Soil Stabilization: Helps reduce surface soil movement on areas affected by recent excavation, landscaping work, or drainage flow, offering temporary coverage while vegetation develops - Green Dyed Surface: Dyed green for a more blended appearance in outdoor settings, giving a finished look on slopes, channels, and open soil areas during early project stages and initial seeding - Coverage for Slopes and Banks: 4' x 112.5' roll sized for slopes, stream banks, drainage channels, roadway edges, and other areas requiring controlled ground coverage across extended lengths ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B012VLEZPG | | Back Material Type | Wood | | Best Sellers Rank | #205,487 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #557 in Garden Netting | | Brand | DeWitt Weed-Barrier | | Color | Green | | Construction Type | Machine Made | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (291) | | Finish Type | Attribute not applicable for product | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00042579817634 | | Indoor/Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Is Stain Resistant | No | | Item Weight | 40 pounds | | Item model number | AEC-SEGRN4 | | Manufacturer | Dewitt | | Material | Wood | | Material Feature | Environmentally friendly and made of curled wood fibers | | Model Name | DEWAECSEGRN4 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Pattern | Solid | | Pile Height | Low Pile | | Product Care Instructions | Attribute not applicable for product | | Product Dimensions | 50"L x 10"W | | Shape | Rectangular | | Size | 10" x 4'2" (Rectangular) | | Special Feature | Fade Resistant | | Style | Modern | | Theme | urban | | UPC | 042579817634 | | Warranty Type | Extended Warranty | | Weave Type | Machine Made | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DeWitt Weed-Barrier - **Item Weight:** 40 Pounds - **Material:** Wood - **Size:** 10" x 4'2" (Rectangular) - **Weave Type:** Machine Made ## Images ![Dewitt Single Net Excelsior Blanket, Green, 4 x 112.5 Feet – Aspen Wood Fiber Erosion Control Mat with Netting for Soil Protection, Grass & Seed Establishment, Ground Cover and Landscaping - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81doKlpNUtL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: So, is this product 50x10x10??? or as it states4ftx101.25ft?** A: Four feet wide 100 feet long. **Q: Can you use this with clover seed or wild flower seed? Or is it just intended for grass?** A: designed for grass of course. Wouldn't think wide leave plants such as wild flowers could get through the narrow slits. **Q: Is this 4 ft by 112 ft?** A: yes. the dimensions are very accurate. **Q: Will my dogs paws get stuck in it?** A: I have 4 large dogs and they have not had a problem with getting stuck in it. Do however get the biodegradable stakes to hold it in place. It will blow in a roll with the wind, and the dogs will also move it till the grass starts coming through. Item works well in getting grass to start on slopes. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ New grass growth support and mud reduction *by A***R on January 10, 2026* Last year I got a roll of this in the spring to minimize the mud the dogs tracks in from the snow in the winter and to help new seed growth.

Some areas were rather thin but we covered a lot more square footage than I thought it would. Now let's hope it keeps my Hill from eroding. ## Frequently Bought Together - Dewitt 4 x 112.5 Foot Photodegradable Single Layer Garden Netting Commercial and Home Landscaping Erosion Control Blanket, Green - Ecoduty 100 ct.
