Make the most of the straw: Practical and useful

Here are some ways to reuse the straw in your daily life:

  • Natural cushion for your pet: Fill a cushion or a basket and offer a unique texture that can be very comfortable for dogs and cats to snuggle and rest on

  • Sensory play area or snuffle mat: Dogs and cats are curious about straw due to its smell and texture. It’s a great material to enrich their environment and stimulate their curiosity. Hide treats or small toys in the straw to encourage them to find them using their scent, helping with their scent training and reducing boredom

  • Litter: For rabbits, hamsters, gerbils, or guinea pigs. Use the straw as comfortable bedding

  • Horse stall bedding: It can also be used as bedding in horse stalls, providing a clean and healthy environment

  • Soil protection and nourishment in your garden: Spread the straw around your plants to protect and nourish the soil, helping to retain moisture and enrich the earth

  • Birdcage bedding: Spread a layer of straw at the bottom of birdcages. Natural and comfortable, it makes it easier to collect waste and offers a natural playground for birds that enjoy foraging

Disposal of the straw and bag: Easy ♻️

The straw is 100% biodegradable and compostable, making it easy to dispose of while being environmentally friendly.

The packaging is made of tea bags and is also 100% biodegradable and compostable. You can dispose of it with the straw without worry.

In Switzerland, here’s how you can responsibly dispose of the straw and the tea bag:

  1. Organic waste: Place the straw and tea bag in the organic waste bin. It will naturally decompose and contribute to compost creation

  2. Garden green waste: You can also dispose of it with green waste in the designated bin. The straw will enrich the recycling cycle by turning into excellent compost

Long live the straw 🌍🌱♻️
