Aged Manure
Many gardening books blithely recommend, almost as a knee jerk reaction, “aged manure” as a primo amendment for soils in the home landscape. This material is usually used as a fertilizer rather than as a mulch although it is a perfectly legitimate addition to the menu of your earthworms and soil microbes.

Dried Manures

Publicity about illnesses due to E. coli 0157:H7 has made people more aware of the potential risk of foodborne illness from manure contamination.

Manure (How's My Dirt?)
