Well, that's a good idea...never thought of that! Thanks for sharing~

Very good idea! I just happen to have some old carpet! TFS

Good idea, I had an elderly friend & he had a large piece of property out back & too much to mow he said so he brought home all the carpet piled up at the curbs, turned it over & covered most of the ground out back, did a great job of keeping the weeds down & looked lot better than 4 ft high weeds. Had row of shrubs across back of his lawn so he could enjoy 1/2 his yard with lawn, fruit trees, grapes etc but didn't have to spend so many of his "golden years" trying to mow all that. Jan

do not use if you have barn cats... :)

GReat idea!
