Erosion Control in San Diego

In San Diego’s hardiness zone of 8a, compost blankets best for erosion preventions, as well as improving soil moisture retention and nutrient content, supporting plant diversity in the Mediterranean-like climate.

In the warmer zone 11a, using UV-stabilized, nondegradable materials, such as plastic or rubber mulch, is crucial to ensure long-term erosion control under intense sunlight.

Degradable, single netting blankets are well-suited for managing erosion in San Diego’s mild climates, encouraging vegetation growth and sustainability.

Open-weave, slow-degrading textiles are beneficial for gardens, pastures, and landscapes in warmer zones. They support the growth of tropical plants while effectively controlling erosion.

Organic tackifiers are a great fit for San Diego’s natural environment, providing firm soil bonding and protecting local flora and fauna.

In warmer conditions, these organic tackifiers like Guar gum ensure that mulch and other ground cover materials stay in place, enhancing soil stability and plant health.
