Make a path for high-traffic areas

A great way to control and redirect foot traffic on your property is by creating a path for people to take. This works for a variety of reasons, including safety.

For example, if the area regularly gets walked or cut through, gravel can be a good solution. It’s clean enough that feet won’t bring mud or dirt inside and can make the area look much more tidy.

Another option is mulch or wood chips. It keeps the path clean and helps prevent weeds from growing in it.

Pavers can also be a good option for paths in grassy areas. They encourage people to walk on them, and can help prevent mud from accumulating during wet weather.
