Dont burn
Autumn leaves. Instead fill large, holed sacks with moist leaves and seal. Theyll
slowly turn into leaf mould , a great soil fertilisers. The sack can be used as a barrier
to stop weeds from spreading.
Destroy weeds in your
lawn without using a chemical weed killer by sprinkling a little salt on the centre weed.
They will die slowly within a couple of weeks.
