- When I first saw videos of mulch glue earlier this season, I was intrigued with the product. When Petra Tools reached out and wanted me to give it a shot on my landscaping, I was eager to see if it would help me lock down my mulch and rock problem spots around my house. In this video, I go over mulch/rock glue, my experience with it, and if I would recommend using it.

Can you tell me where to buy the Beest Sticky ?
@@loristambulich5281I was advised by PetraTools that the BEEST Sticky glue is currently out of stock both on Amazon and their website. They are not sure when they will get it restocked. I apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks for watching!
@@loristambulich5281 I was just informed today by Petra that they reformulated Beest Sticky and improved the formulation, now available to purchase here: PetraTools Super Max Mulch Glue (Improved Beest Sticky) - amzn.to/429esKZ
Well done video, keep up the great work. Awesome job hitting 5k!
Thanks! Will do! Appreciate you watching!
I love the honest video. I have used this for a few customers that requested it and did not have much luck with it. Worked ok at first, but wore off pretty quickly and it is pricey.
I agree - I'm curious to see how long mine lasts. Thanks for watching!
I have always been skeptical of mulch glue. Its pretty pricey for the actual benefit you get from it in ny opinion. Great review 👏
It is pricey and I would not recommend it - I tried the two different versions and it wore off pretty quickly on the rocks and the mulch. It may work for some people, but it personally did not work for me. Thanks for watching!
This was very informative. I am at my wit's ends not knowing what to do. I've been intrigued by this"bark glue" I just heard about, but glad to hear about the "cons" you experienced. We live in the Western USA, Rocky Mountains higher-elevation [5000 ft]. My southern-facing rose bushes get VERY hot in the summer and plenty of ice and snow in the winter. Our neighborhood sits near the mouth of a large mountain canyon and we seem to be on a direct flight path of those canyon winds. The breeze is steady year-round, and then we experience at least 2 [or more] BIG wind storms every spring and fall [anywhere betwen 40-55+ mph]. As you can imagine, this does a doozy on our landscaping. Even the continual "breeze" is an issue. The landscaping crew has kept putting down shredded bark around the bushes each spring, that looks great for a handful of days [or hours] then begins to blow into the sidewalks and driveway, down the street, into the grass ... and making its way into the community pool ... it goes everywhere except where it is supposed to be! Nightmare. I told them to stop putting it down. Now we have ugly bare dirt with exposed drip lines, and I am constantly weeding. I just want to make certain I make the right choice for what to use. Should we do rock? What kind, what size? Do I need to put a weed barrier down before I use rocks [would cut out around my rose bushes and ornamental grass ... will they be okay? Or, just put river rock down without a barrier? Should we do a larger, heavier type of bark? With or without a weed barrier? And, how do we keep that from blowing away?! Will this "glue" do the trick in our situation?! Or, would I just need to constantly need to re-apply the expensive glue? ... I still don't know what to do, but it was helpful to see your expert review and become aware of the issues that you encountered, esp. the white discoloration in rain storms. If you or anyone else have any ideas for me, it would be appreciated. Gotta do something this spring.
Wow, that is frustrating fore sure! I would definitely go with a larger grade river rock with a weed barrier underneath it. The weed barrier will help prevent the weeds and the larger rocks will ensure the wind doesn't wreak havoc on your landscaping anymore. Thanks for watching and good luck!
Very interesting product I need to give this a shot on my mulch beds to avoid water washing it away
It worked great on the mulch, not so good luck on the lava rocks. I hope it works well for you!
I have a one foot transition section at end of my driveway where my concrete driveway meets the asphalt road. My builder (9years ago) put down asphalt in this section. Most of this asphalt has washed away. If I were to put pea gravel, etc in this section, would either of these products keep the gravel in place as i drive in and out? Thnx!!
They actually now make a rock glue specifically for rocks. I'm waiting for mine to arrive to test it!
I have river rock that's beautiful when wet but blah when dry. Would the Beast product make it look wet as well as hold it down?
The mulch glue dries clear so once it dries it won't give that wet effect that you are looking for, you won't really be able to see it when it dries. Thanka for watching!
1 gallon Titebond II mixed with 2 gallons of super hot water - basically the same thing. may discolor slightly and may have similar sheen issues - test before using widely.
What about totebond 3? Wouldnt that be a better use scenario?
Great video Justin
Thank you! Appreciate the support
I am interested in using this with gravel that is a mixture of .5' and 1.5". What is the size of your lava rocks? It looks bigger than the gravel I use so I am hoping this would work better with what I use.
I think that the issue with the lava rock is that it was porous - which prevented the glue from holding it together. It worked well since then on some river rock that I have around the house and I have talked to others who have said it works fantastic on pea gravel. Petra did advise that they are planning to release a specially formulated rock glue, but I am not sure when they plan to start selling it.
Thank you for the honest review, I think I would pass on this stuff since I don't have many areas that wash away. Great video
👍
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Wow,,,🤔 this gives me an idea to make a slury of clay soil and water real sticky mud, that drys hard, after applied under the rucks that have been pushed into it.
Like an adobe mix, with or without the coloring..
It would probably work better than the mulch glue! Haha
but won't it just wash away in rain or watering?
Is it sticky once it dries?
No, once it dries it is not sticky. Thanks for watching!
I cannot find the Sticky brand. Did Petra tool change the name?
Yes, they released an updated version of it after this video. I linked it in the description if the following link isn't clickable. Thanks!

Thank you!

Do you live where freeze/thaw exists?
Yes, I live in Northeast Indiana. I haven't noticed any issues with this glue over the winter or during temperature transitions
we have squirrels trying to dig up and bury acorns all over in mulch i wonder if this would deter them from digging.
I'm sure they will still try to dig, you would probably have to put a few applications on to make it stronger I would imagine. If they work at it, they would likely still be able to get through with their claws I would think. Thanks for watching!
Great
Thanks for watching!
Valuable information! Next time remove the sunglasses 😎
Thanks for watching!
It seems they don't make that Beest Sticky Glue. At least, nobody sells it. I wonder why...
Yeah I find it odd myself. I had someone else message me this after the video. I reached out to Petra and haven't heard back. Seems to me either people bought it out and they have a supply issue or they pulled it to revamp it. Thanks for watching!
This stuff worked ok on my mulch, but it faded away quickly.
I will definitely be interested to see how it holds up over the winter and into next spring. Thanks for watching!
@@TheLawnLover how is it still holding up for you i was going to order it but read many bad views how it didn't last for few.
@jeremiah1797 The higher strength stuff did hold up quite well on the mulch, not so well on my lava rock. I would recommend it on mulch or smaller gravel, but not larger stones. They said, they told me that they now have rock glue they are sending me to test, but I haven't used it yet.
