ABSTRACT:
Mulch flakes made from finely divided paper and/or wood, and a surfactant. The flakes include surfactant which allows them to very quickly absorb about nine times their weight in water. This quick absorbency feature allows the flakes to be added more quickly to jet-agitated hydro-mulching tanks. Once sprayed on the ground, the flakes substantially reduce water run-off and soil erosion as compared to other mulches.
