Use your shredded newspaper, or wet newspapers, before you add mulch.
Stops weeds..

I use newspapers also. They are simply great and free after being read, so... I planted two walkways about 10 years ago, one side with wet newspapers and beautiful small white stone on top. Other side with a roll of the material that is suppose to keep weeds out. Nope, my newspaper kept for 10 years, a few tiny straglers now and again. The other side had weeds popping through in no time, what a mess, with all my beautiful landscaping stone all dotted with weeds all of the time. So recycle and save time and money and be weed free! I have found it to be the best preventive there is so far.
