Mulching Questions

Is it a good idea to replace mulch with lava rock
My husband and I are considering replacing our red mulch with lava rock. We have quite a large area and realize it will be costly but look forward to not replacing mulch yearly. What are your thoughts? Is this a bad idea? I've read the lava might retain too much heat. Thanks for your help! Lisa, Russellville
How do I do keep unwanted guests out of my lawn?
For the past few years around March I have been finding piles of dirt all over my lawn. It seems there is some type of insect that has been hibernating and then digs itself out during the beginning of spring. How do I get rid of them? Augusta Ellenwood, GA
What can we do about the fungus in our flower bed?
There is some kind of bright yellow looking fungus in our flower bed at home (it looks like something the dog puked up). Is there anything we can put on our mulch to get rid of it? Thanks for your help.
