What to do about the rocks and stuff left in a new home dirt-lot backyard?

chotmanee d asked: My backyard is a dirt-lot (since it’s a new home). It’s full of all those rocks and a smattering of nails.
What is usually done about this? Do they have to remove all rocks before doing landscaping? Do they just do landscaping over the rocks?
Thanks.

Want to use mulch/wood chips in landscaping, but very concerned about it being harmful to dogs?

CGH asked: I know that a lot of the wood chips/mulching is color treated, some have a bug repellent on them too. They may also contain some sort of anti fungal spray.
How can I use something like the pretty reddish wood chips in my backyard landscaping without risking my dogs health??
