Ever wonder how the guy knocking on your door to spread some pine straw at an unbelieveably low price can make money? I mean if he is going to spread it for $3.50 per bale and you would pay 3.25 per bale at home depot which does not include spreading it …. It sounds like a great deal right. Wrong. The majority of these door knockers, not all, basically double charge the home owner for the bales. If they tell you they put out 98 then they likely put out about 50. They spread the pine straw way too thin to make it go further.
A good deal is not always what it seems. You’re welcome

Will Pine Straw Stop All Weeds?
You need pine straw in your landscape beds… or mulch. The reason is that it controls weeds and keeps in moisture for the plants. But to stop weeds completely you have to maintain the beds weekly. Either spraying with weed killer or pulling them up by hand are the most common methods. The more you spray the less pulling is needed. Just be careful not to kill your plants. It is not hard to do if you spray on a windy day. It is best to do it on a day with no wind.
