Where do you get it from?
Ours desperately need something to keep them off the ground

Looks as if it may be a bumper year, picked 2lbs for the freezer, and
just six more for dessert, (but they did in total weigh in at over 9
oz's)

So have you thought of something instead of straw?

I use, cut up, wire netting, the small hole green stuff, its cheap,
reusable, cut to any shape, and if bent slightly holds the
strawberries well clear of the soil, allows everything to dry out
after the rain (!) seems to deter the slugs

Works for me
