Lung association offers alternatives

Fall can be a difficult time of the year for persons suffering from lung disease because of the extensive amount of leaf burning that takes place. For everyone’s health, the American Lung Association is encouraging individuals to utilize alternatives to leaf burning this fall. Pollutants emitted during leaf burning are especially harmful to persons with existing respiratory problems, due to the relatively concentrated amounts at ground level in populated areas. In addition to particulates and carbon monoxide, leaf burning emits hydrocarbons, some of them carcinogenic, as well as mod spores which can cause breathing difficulties for many asthmatics. Alternatives to leaf burning include bagging leaves, mulching, shredding and composting. Shredding, mulching and composting are all excellent ways to turn leaves into soil conditioners. Shredding — To shred leaves, simply mow over them with the Time for * flower beds Early fall is a good time to prepare new flower beds.

lawn mower. Shredded leaves can either be left on the lawn to act as a soil conditioner, or used in mulching. Many power mowers today come with a shredding attachment. Mulching — Mulching is accomplished by placing whole or shredded leaves around trees and shrubs. This practice helps retain mosture and helps prevent freezing of roots. Composting — Rake leaves into an unused corner of the lawn in a six to 12 inch layer. Moisten the leaves and then add a few handfuls of fertiliser over the top of the layer to speed up decay and add nutrients. Any regular agricultural lime could also be used. Continue to layer as above until all leaves are layered and keep the top of the pile flat or slightly concaved to retain moisture. Allow six months to a year for the leaves to decay, then spread the decomposed leaf mixture around the trees, flowers, shrubs or work into the top soil of the garden. Persons who choose not to use any of these methods can opt to bag the leaves and have them picked up. It is also recommended that other materials that are usually burned, be compacted
