Default Should I leave mulch around citrus trees?

A landscape guy told me we should remove the bark mulch from around the muture grapefruit, young valencia, and small lemon tree in our recently purchased Springdale yard. According to him citrus trees don't like moist "feet". But the grapefruit tree is full of small fruit, so someone else told me to leave it. Would appreciate hearing from a successful grower.
