Wood Mulch:

Wood mulch can be made from wood chips, which is easily available and also easy to make. Some arborists are concerned about the wood chips on whether it has come from a diseased or a healthy tree. Usually, the wood chips break down from the tree so they can be prepared from those chips. The mulches made from other wood chips are not so harmful but the wood chips of black walnut trees can be harmful to sensitive plants. The chemical present in walnut chips can be present in the tree roots. It is better to mulch made from black walnut to use after it ages for a time so that it is not harmful.
