Bark mulch is undoubtedly one of the most valuable types of organic matter for gardens. Moreover, it can be used all around the seasons.
Barkdust installers apply mulches for several reasons. Some of these include:
1. Discouraging weeds from growing
Barkdust specialists apply bark mulch on the surface of the soil, blocking out sunlight and air — thus suppressing weeds. This is one of the best alternatives to hand-pulling weeds or vegetable garden spraying.
2. Improving soil fertility
Over time, mulches decomposes releasing nutrients to the soil. Decomposing mulch is full of nitrogen and bacteria which are needed by plants. Bark mulch is particularly significant in creating favorable conditions for worms and soil microorganisms to thrive. Over time, these soil organisms help to ease soil compaction.
3. Conserving moisture in the soil
Barkdust superbly prevents excess water infiltration during the rainy seasons. It also prevents excessive evaporation of soil moisture during the dry season.
4. Maintaining soil temperature
During winter, barkdust protects roses, perennials, and other plants roots.
5. Decoration
Another package offered by bark blowing services is decoration. Mulches also increases the splendor of garden beds with color and texture to supplement the plant material.
6. Erosion control
Mulches reduces the negative impacts of erosion by preventing topsoil from being carried away by rainwater.
