Weeding woes: Modern tools offer pain-free solutions for gardeners
Weeding garden beds and removing unwanted plants from problematic areas, such as cracks in paving stones, is a tedious and laborious task that gardeners often dread. How can you make it easier? It is worth considering specialised tools.
Are weeds appearing in your garden or lawn? They look unattractive and can multiply quickly and ultimately "suppress" the ornamental plants we nurture or reduce the yield in the vegetable garden. Unwanted self-seeders often grow in hard-to-reach places, such as cracks in paving stones.
How to get rid of weeds without weeding?
Of course, the most popular method of eliminating weeds is manually or with a sharpened hoe. However, this laborious method can heavily strain our spine. Spending an extended period in an unnatural, bent position may result in unpleasant back pain.
Some people opt for chemical methods and sprays. However, this is not an eco-friendly solution, can be expensive, and potentially harm our crops.
Removing weeds without weeding
Fortunately, there are modern, non-invasive methods of weed removal that allow us to easily clean the garden, driveway, or pavement without bending over and risking back pain. Special tools are effective for this task. One such tool is a weed burner. We can quickly eliminate unwanted plants without harming others. The nozzle grasps the stem and roots and then burns them away.
A special weed puller is also effective in fighting weeds. We do not have to bend over—the tool consists of special "claws" on a long handle. We can easily cut out weeds in garden beds without damaging other plants, and it’s also effective in hard-to-reach places.
