I have a hill beside my drive way and every time It rains the mudd flows down in my drive way making a big mess. What can I put there to stop the mudd from comeing down the hill that would not be so exspensive. This is red clay mudd horrible mudd it gets so thick on the drive way after it rains I have to shovel it and it gets on my car my shoes every where.

You have to basic ways you can go. First you can put in some type of retaining wall with castle rock or something similar. See below.

The second choice is to put in a ground cover of some sort. I don't have any recommendations because I don't know where you live. You may consider combining the two for the best effect.

Get a 6 inch pipe half the length of your drive way and cut it in half, shovel down your drive and install the pipe with some big aluminum gutter nails, and then take some seed and sew the hell out of that hill with some quick growing ground covering foliage that you don't mind that should cure the erosion, and then you can rem,ove the pipe at the end of next summer
