Straw wattles can be an effective way to protect your fire-damaged property from erosion. Anyone interested in wattles must first schedule a site inspection with Korin Woodward of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Ms. Woodward will help you make sure that wattles are the best erosion control method for you, and assess how many you may need.
