For erosion control, the bags’ tight weave and high capacity ensure stability on slopes and embankments. How to Use Filling: Fill each sandbag halfway to two-thirds full with sand, gravel, or soil. Overfilling may reduce effectiveness. Placement: Place the sandbags in a staggered, brick-like pattern for maximum stability. Walk on filled sandbags to create a tight seal between layers.
