If you have a garden, or a green area, then you’ve probably heard about mulch. Mulch comes in different types and materials, but all of them have pretty much the same purpose: to make it easier for plants to grow, and make the gardener’s or landscaper’s job easier.

There are basically two types of mulch, organic and non organic. Among the brands of non organic mulch, Rubberific mulch is one of the most famous and known ones.

Rubberific mulch is made out of recycled rubber mulch tires that aren’t safe to use anymore. This alone prevents old tires from ending up in some dump or garbage yard. Just remember to dispose of your Rubberific mulch properly once you’re done with it, so it gets recycled in another product and doesn’t become another pollutant.

Rubberific mulch can come in its natural dark grey, almost black color, or it can come painted and coated in a different color that goes better with your garden or playground. Rubberific mulch comes in natural colors, like cypress or cedar, or artificial ones, like blue and green, giving you a great choice of variety so that you can get the look you want for your area. Rubberific mulch guarantees that the coating will not face in at least 10 years, after which, it’ll revert to its natural almost black color.

Some people don’t like to use non organic mulch because they believe that it is toxic to the plants. However, Rubberific mulch has been proven to be non toxic to plants and flowers of any kind. In addition, because of its nature, bugs and termites don’t breed or nest on Ruberrific mulch. This helps reduce the use of pesticides.

Another advantage of Rubberific mulch is that it is five times heavier, and thus it won’t wash away with irrigating or watering, normal wind or rain. It is specially useful in areas where the terrain is inclined or has a steep, as it stays in place much better than wood mulch.

Rubberific mulch is also very effective for weed control. Weeds can’t grow on rubber, and therefore any weed would have to grow from the soil. However, this is difficult and unlikely, since Rubberific mulch doesn’t allow sunlight to reach the soil. In addition, the heaviness of Rubberific mulch will make it impossible for weeds to push it as it sprouts and grows.

Finally, Rubberific mulch is not toxic for humans or pets. Nevertheless, as with any type of mulch, always pay attention that your child doesn’t put it in his or her mouth, as it might contain dirt or other foreign materials that might be harmful to your child.
