Mulch may not be the best option for your garden
Do you hate it when the front garden gets overrun with weeds but cannot afford to pay for a gardener to get rid of them? Mulch may seem like a good option for your garden since it is easier to maintain than grass. However, it can end up causing more problems than you might think.
This is because of two reasons: one, it retains more water, which cannot only kill off some of your plants but can also lead to foundational issues if that moisture seeps into the building.; two, it serves as a great environment for termites to live in. Perhaps you would be better off taking the time to weed yourself.
