As Teek is called flotsam but especially strong in particular from plant debris, the permanent, according to storm surges , the coast is washed and then a Flutsaum the beach or on the dike forms.

Together with the other washed up garbage , the tea causes damage in particular to the sward of the dike, which protects the dike body from erosion . The tea must therefore be removed from the dike and driven off regularly. The removal of the tea on the German North Sea coast is the task of the main dike associations, also known as dyke yachts or dyke bands.

The amount of tea on the German North Sea coast has risen sharply in recent years. The reason is believed to be the ban on traditional management of the dike foreland in the Wadden Sea National Park .
