Yes, it looks like the word is out now that I'm part of the family, I'm a Dad and a Grandpa.
I was wondering also about the health risks of colored inks, and I've come to the conclusion that paper mulch is safe to use in the flower garden, but you should be sure to only shred black inks (carbon based) if using it with the edibles.
After applying the mulch on a wind-free day, I sprinkled lightly with the garden hose to wet it down and keep it in place.
Has anyone experimented with composting paper shreddings?
