ooh I remember the asbestos thing. Yea I think you're right. The landscaper who did the place maybe 8 yrs ago brought in a whole lot crappy soil / mulch and created a nightmare. When the soil tests came back it was wild. Took so long to get back under control.

I've had mulch that had bits of plastic and glass in it too.
