RUBBER MULCH -Beware

"Rubber mulch is typically made from ground up recycled tires and has generated a lot of discussion on the benefits and risks or dangers of using it.

"There seems to be two schools of thought on rubber mulch. It seems that all the studies paid for by the rubber mulch manufacturers and tire companies show benefits after their PR firms get through with them, while all the independent studies show that it is toxic and dangerous."

The above is a partial quote from Nature's Way Resources -- an organically based service company. Please refer to their site:

and read about rubber mulch. You probably will never use it and you shouldn't if you care about your landscaping and the environment.
