INFO TO SHARE –

Heard that the trees that had been knocked down in the hurricane were being turned into mulch and sold in bags at cheap prices, but the consumer needs to beware they might contain termites.

BUT, termites don’t like our cold weather, so they probably wouldn’t survive, per another member.
