Lye can be made from wood ash. This means not only can you put wood ash directly on your garden and in your compost but you can also make lye for soap, food making (hominy, soft pretzels etc), and drain cleaner. This is why I still say wood heating is less harmful to the environment than "clean" heating. Not to mention the branches can be chipped for the wood chips. If people only knew how powerful a tree is and just how much they are truly the best filter, heating source, cooling source, fertilizer, and food source for both fruits, nuts, and seeds, and for the lye made from hardwood ash and building material.
Just a thought, you could use this to get ride of chiggers.
