Rav MOshe Vaye, regarding bugs in Schach

Question:

https://dinonline.org/Bedikat/succah-schach-succah-mats/
in the last 2 YEARS, I have seen the flourishing in sales (in Israel) of the NEW, BUG FREE, Slat-style Scach (Top Kashruth, Eidah I think) that is SOLID wood slats, treated and guaranteed to stay bug free.
I realize without a CAVITY for the critters to enter, this is a game changer.
OR…have problems with bugs surfaced outside MY daled amot?

Thanks for the reply.

Answer:

I am not aware of what this schach is about. You can call 073-295-1387 and listen to a shiur from R’ Vaye on the matter. As of today it is the most recent shiur. Alternitively of it has a Badatz Eida Hachareidis, you can call them at 02-670-0200, and ask for updated information.

  1. The Shiur is in Hebrew. That is why I am writing your site. If you look at the SUKKAH places, the THIN ROLL of Scach is new. 1/2 the size, and USUALLY one is open for viewing.
    I thought Rav Vaye was associated here, and if so and YOU CAN ASK HIM, I believe it would help all of us as for the efficacy of this newer Scach, with BUG-FREE status.
    If not, does the Rav have an email you can send me?
    Thanks.

    1. We use his psakim, but he isn’t associted with the site, in the sence that I can contact him easier that anyone else. Nevertheless, if it is hard for you to understand the shiur, I will try to look into it.
