opinions on cedar chips? (back yard, spring, house, problems)

[ccornewell]

hi, the wife and i are planning on using a lot of cedar chips in the yard this year. we currently have 1 known bat nearby (hes very nice, helps with the bugs) and have mosquito problems. would the chips bother the bat or help the skeeters? were also putting up our first bat house this spring as well. any opinions on cedar chips are welcomed.

I doubt it will affect either very much. I spread some around the house and if it dissuaded bugs, I could not tell. No shortage of bats.

They have a nice look and smell nice for a few weeks. I prefer mini pine nuggets though.

opinions on cedar chips? Cedar chips are great for a dog lot or a back yard where they are roaming freely, it dissuades a variety of bugs, smells good to most humans, fleas and ticks can't stand the stuff.
