My supplier claims alcohol is a byproduct of anerobically decomposing Oak mulch, and that in early Spring when the pile has sat all Winter without oxygen, enough alcohol can be produced that the mulch will burn sensitive emerging foliage and run-off and kill turf if watered. I haven't seen this, but the supplier claims some landscapers who use the Oak mulch have had problems with this.
It would be nice to know what kinda of mulch was used, and any strange odors or colors that were noticed.
