Cardboard
You can use cardboard in your garden as mulch or to create walkways where you don’t want anything to grow.
Carefully
cut open cardboard boxes and cut them to the width you want.
Place them on the
where you want to mulch. Overlay the edges so weeds can’t sprout up in between.
Hold the cardboard down with a second layer of mulch like
hay
or
bark
.
It will slowly get soggy and rot so don’t use it were you know the ground will stay wet.
If you have a problem with earwigs in your garden this is not the best solution for your garden.
