Default Couch Grass what should I cover it with?

Thank you for this posting.

Although it will be difficult to find animals on sawdust in our region
(nor would I probably condone it) the description is very interesting
and should lead to a few good ideas.

Sawdust and dung are still available and the sawdust being the only
variation in a well-established procedure, I shall give it a try.

Unfortunately, our lumber mills begin to understand what they were
wasting for too long and took to *selling* sawdust (for money). Who told
them...

Bye,
