Review on 🧦 PIG Home Solutions Water and Moisture Absorbing Sock - 12 pack - 3x48 - High-Visibility Yellow - Absorbs up to 1 Gallon per Sock - PIG105-YW by Steve Hauck

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Doesn't seem very good at stopping water from flowing. Although it will absorb.

Like most garages, mine slopes toward the top door (to the driveway) and an inside corner. I brought a New Pig PIG105-BL absorbent sock that is mildew resistant to prevent water from pooling in that corner. others walk along the wall. That way I was hoping to prevent water from entering that corner. Washed my car with a pump sprayer producing about .77 GPM and watched the water run to the back of the garage, hit the toe of the PIG105-BL and move to the right. Under him. The water eventually pooled in, you guessed it, the corner I was trying to avoid. I thought the PIG105-BL absorbent sock might not be on the floor, so I tried to press on it. Doesn't matter. The water continued to flow from below and pooled in the corner. However, the absorbent socks PIG105-BL will absorb water. After initial disappointment that the item didn't do what I wanted I tried just putting it against the wall in the corner where I now had the usual large puddle of water. After a while all the water had evaporated. Once the absorbent sock PIG105-BL is saturated, it has a certain weight; and figure out where to let it dry, I haven't figured it out yet. You get a lot of socks in one box for the price. So I think you can throw away the rich if they don't dry up. But I wouldn't buy another box once this one's gone. My conclusion: The suction sock PIG105-BL itself is not a water barrier, but it absorbs it damn well.
