If you had been lucky to get the nylon type backing those last and last because they don't fall apart. Check next time when they are re-doing commercial places as they are the ones that use them more.
There is also other mulching you can use check www.raw-connections.com/garden (Gift from my son to help me make this informative site :o))))) Nice for beginners and kid site, for general instructions on making an easy garden, Check the hay bale garden for the easiest raised bed garden.

No weeds, no tilling, no water run off, [water runs right throught the carpet carrying any fertilizer laid on top with it], bugs and snails don't like the carpet, no rust from soil borne viruses and fruits don't lie on the ground. The grass dies from lack of light and fertilizes the garden. The decaying grass roots soften the soil. One drawback. After about 4 years the carpet disintigrates and can be a bit hard to roll up and dispose of.
