The very good thing about using leaves as compost is that they are clean and easy to handle, it is good for the soil, it cuts down on watering, it can be used on any soil and at any time of the year.

Burning leaves may contribute to health problems. They burn slowly and generate large amounts of airborne particles and when breathed in cause coughing, chest pain and shortness of breath. Burning leaves releases carbon monoxide. In addition eyes, nose and throat can be irritated and is not at all popular with those suffering from Asthma. The smoke is also irritating to those neighbours who may want to leave their windows open, the smell takes some time to dissipate
