You need-full mulch or just touch up.

Also, it is a natural product so it varies from lot to lot. I've not had it happen but I've read of people finding active insects in it. It often has pine cones and sticks mixed in. If, you are doing it yourself, I would buy one bale from several stores to see the quality-before you buy a large quantity.

Both Lowes and Home depo will give you less 5% if you out it on their credit card. Lowes gives quantity prices on fertilizer bought in quantity. You should ask-they may do the same on pine straw.
