Should mushrooms be removed in the yard?

• <div><p>According to the <a href="https://homegrown.extension.ncsu.edu/2021/11/why-mushrooms-grow-in-my-yard-sometimes/">College of Agriculture and Life Sciences</a>, there are over 10,000 kinds of mushrooms, and some are harmful to both humans and animals. However, not all mushrooms are harmful—some feed on thatch and wood, which provides nutrients for grass and plants. </p><p>But unless you’re a mushroom expert (mycologist), it can be hard to tell poisonous mushrooms from non-poisonous. So if you have kids or pets (or both), removing them is the safest route to take.</p></div>

What can I use instead of a dumpster?

• <div><p>Alternatives to a dumpster include junk removal services and dumpster bags. These are good options if you have limited space and can’t fit a dumpster on your property or if a dumpster isn’t available. You can also take smaller loads of waste to a disposal facility yourself if you have a vehicle that can fit your items.</p></div>

How do I dispose of excess sod?

• <div><p>There are several ways to dispose of excess sod, including building a compost pile, taking it to a green waste disposal facility, donating the sod, or reusing it in another part of your yard. It’s a good idea to check with your local municipality to see <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/yard-waste-removal-recycling-donating-and-reusing.htm">how to get rid of yard waste</a>, as some areas have local regulations on what can go in the green waste bin. For example, your recycling services may reject too much soil added to green waste.</p></div>

Is forestry mulching worth it?

• <div><p>If you have a large area of brush and vegetation to clear, forestry mulching may be the best option. This method works well for relatively flat areas that don’t have many large rocks or mature trees to clear. Forestry mulching is a relatively quick process that improves soil health, reduces fire risk, and leaves behind usable mulch.</p></div>

Can you make your own mulch?

• <div><p>Yes, you can absolutely make your own mulch, and there are a few ways to go about it. First, you can lay down pine needles or mulched leaves if you’re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-you-mulch-in-fall.htm">mulching in the fall</a>. In the spring and summer, you can use mulched grass clippings. Alternatively, you can lay down a few layers of newspaper in your garden and gently wet the paper to keep it in place.</p></div>
