Shredded timber for paths?
First let me confess I don't have an allotment (just a garden) but this seemed the most relevant section.
We had to have some big conifers cut down recently, along with the ivy, etc. that grew around them. So, a big load of timber is drying, but all the small pieces, leave, twigs etc. were shredded and now there's a big haystack-type mound of little timber pieces.
My question is - could they be used for paths between beds - would they keep down weeds? Or would they encourage pests?
I look forward to some knowledgable grapes' advice.
