I read the recent posts about mulch hay.  My experience: We used a 
number of 4x5 round bales of grassy mulch hay in the past several 
years.  It was inexpensive but I regret it.  Some of the hay was 
extremely moldy and dusty and caused a lot of respiratory distress in 
the people spreading the mulch.  I had sneezing, watery eyes and 
headaches just picking crops next to the mulch months later.  Good 
clean straw and or dry grassy hay is much more fun to work with and 
much healthier to be around.
