Miscanthus Animal Bedding
We take pride in producing and packaging all our premium, 100% natural, cost-effective Horse & Animal Bedding using eco-friendly miscanthus grown right here at Nanhoron Farms on the Llŷn Peninsula in North Wales.
Why Choose Miscanthus?
There are many advantages to choosing miscanthus over alternatives such as Wood Shavings, Wood Pellets or Hemp Bedding. The specific benefits that Miscanthus Bedding can offer far outweigh its counterparts:
Superior Absorbency
Miscanthus is up to 3 times more absorbent than wood shavings, and can be up to 5 times more absorbent as compared to traditional straws. It tends to have a more open structure than hemp, promoting airflow, wicking away moisture, and drying out effectively to prevent compacting. Miscanthus Bedding also dehydrates bacteria, which supports healthy animals and birds.
Value for Money & Versatile
Miscanthus is widely used for all types of animals, including in the equine, cattle and poultry sectors, but also great for smaller animals and pets such as rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, mice, rats - and not forgetting dog kennels, goats, donkeys, sheep, and so on. Less bedding is used over time, due to its highly absorbent properties, which leads to long-term cost savings.
Exceptionally Low Dust Animal Bedding
Miscanthus is advantageous to both animals and humans with respiratory problems (such as COPD), allergies or sensitivities, due to a triple dust-extraction process. This is more effective than other ‘dust-free’ alternatives.
Ammonia & Odour Control
Miscanthus wicks away liquid and absorbs it in its inner core. At the same time, the shell traps ammonia, which results in a dry and odourless environment. This is an advantage to the respiratory health of both animals and humans.
Reducing Digestive Issues
Much less appealing than straw to those animals who have a tendency to try and eat their bedding, miscanthus is unpalatable, causing fewer digestive issues that would result in expensive vet bills.
Excellent Thermal Properties
Providing excellent insulation properties, Miscanthus Bedding will keep your animals warm and comfortable in the winter. At the same time, its robust structure will help keep them supported rather than ‘sinking down’, as they might do with other bedding types.
Less Waste & Easier Mucking Out
Miscanthus Bedding helps you save time and money by reducing mucking out times and preventing waste. Droppings and wet spots are easy to identify, as the bedding is ‘semi-clumping’ and therefore lasts longer compared to the alternatives. Miscanthus is also lightweight and simple to spread, leaving workers with more time to deal with other tasks.
Natural & Compostable with No Seeds
Completely seedless, miscanthus is 100% natural and makes great nitrogen-rich compost in 6-8 weeks. Compared to wood shavings and straw, muck heaps will be much smaller. Additionally, miscanthus does not strip the soil of nitrogen when spread on fields or gardens, saving on fertilisers and ensuring no unwanted seeds will be sprouting.
