Cedar?

[killfrenzi]

I have heard that cedar is a natural way of ridding a plant of bug problems? Just lay on top of soil around the base of the plant and the cedar has some natural chemical in it that detures most bugs.

I was wondering if anyone has tried or heard of this. I would like to try it if anyone thinks its a good idea. Also I was thinking that it is a good way to retain moisture?

Any thoughts or input on this?
