Tarred String

Description

Very hard to find nowadays but we have tracked some down….tarred jute and so rot resistant and very long lasting, unpalatable to birds who will not unpick it for their nests and disliked by creepy crawlies such as the red spider mite.

Made from natural fibre string (diameter approx 2mm) impregnated with tar – the length of each roll, weighing 500+gms, is approx 74m

The current batch are traditional roll/ball shaped.

As featured on TV in Gardeners World 2024 but with many other uses beyond gardening.

NB NB NB – AS OF JANUARY 2025 THE BALL SIZE IS DOUBLE (AT 500 GMS) THE WEIGHT AND LENGTH SUPPLIED TO EARLIER CUSTOMERS – BUT NOT DOUBLE THE PRICE!. WE WOULD EXPECT TO REVERT TO SUPPLYING 250 GM BALLS IN MARCH 2025
