    We would not recommend this as a mulch.

    We do not recommend specific brands. Do a search for 'cocoa shell mulch for sale in the uk" I found several sources available to you.

    This is harmless both to you and the garden unless your immune system is seriously compromised. The soil, as you know, is full of fungus and bacteria. Being in a bag creates conditions that encourage fungal growth, damp and dark. Once you spread it, the fungus will vanish from view.

    It wouldn't hurt, and actually may keep it from developing any kind of rot. Had it been regular soil, I would have said no. Mulch on the, other hand can be handled differently.

    It wouldn't hurt anything. You can leave it, but you may find that some of your mulch will "disappear", and that you may have to even add a bag once a season. Here is an article for maintaining mulch: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/garden-how-to/mulch/benefits-of-using-mulch.htm
