Bamboo mat

One of the ways to use a bamboo mat for S'chach (for the top of a sukkah). The Bamboo Mat is made from Bamboo sticks then it's cut vertical and tied with a thin string. Although you can use palm leaves and pine tree branches etcetera, But the Bamboo Mat can be used yearly as opposed to palm leaves and pine tree branches etcetera that can't be used yearly. Also another advantage is that if you will use palm leaves and pine tree branches etcetera, leaves and chips of wood might fall off from the palm leaves and pine tree branches etcetera , but if you use a bamboo mat for S'chach usually leaves and chips of wood would less likely to fall off from the s'chach Once Succot is over, it can just as easily be rolled up into about 6" in diameter depending on your bamboo mat so for example if you have a bamboo mat that's 5' x 10' it will usually be 5' feet tall, making storage and retrieval simple year after year.
