[QUOTE="stocky, post: 1024854, member: 1150"] I have some big elm and maple trees in the yard, around the house, that are between 50 and 100 years old. Their roots lay on top of the ground and tear the lawn mower up every summer. I thought it would be good to haul in some river bottom topsoil and cover the roots, but was told that after the roots have been exposed, to cover them will cause them to rot and will kill the tree. Has anyone heard of this or had this problem? How is the best way to handle it, short of dozing out the trees and roots and starting all over with a new yard? Thanks [/QUOTE]
