Applications

Applying large Red Gum wood chips to your landscape is a straightforward process, by following these steps, you’ll successfully create an attractive, low-maintenance, and healthy outdoor environment.

Before you begin, ensure the area is free from weeds and debris. Clear out any existing mulch or vegetation that may hinder the application.

Measure the area you intend to mulch to determine how much Red Gum wood chips you’ll need. Aim for a depth of around 75-100mm (3-4 inches) for optimal mulching.

If weed control is a concern, consider laying down a weed barrier fabric before spreading the wood chips. This can help prevent weeds from pushing through the mulch.

Begin spreading the wood chips evenly across the prepared area. Use a rake or shovel to distribute them uniformly, ensuring you achieve the desired depth.

Be careful to leave a gap around the base of trees, shrubs, and other plants to avoid direct contact with the mulch. This prevents potential issues like root rot.

After spreading the wood chips, lightly compact them using a tamper or the back of a rake. This helps to settle the mulch and ensures it stays in place.
