Having tried newspaper and cardboard boxes as weed barrier in the past, I strongly recommend that this not be done. I ended up with a thriving colony under both. I've also found termites under bags of mulch which stayed in one place too long. Maybe where you live termites aren't a problem, but down here they love things like this to live in and be close to our buildings for further feasting.
