.
- Don’t do this on a windy day or the whole neighbourhood will be reading your news!

- Cover them with hay, straw, grass clippings or sawdust to hold them down.
- If your garden has earwigs you may want to choose different mulch because these pests love to read the ‘sports section’ while they chew on your plants.
