They won’t necessarily get the roots, so the weeds may grow back, but if you keep on top of maintenance then you can maintain a clear area. I would say that this also isn’t the best weeding tool for taking out the roots of large, tough weeds like dandelions – it’s better at disturbing the soil surface, and uprooting smaller weeds, rather than targeting large taproots.

Some rakes are so over built that you can’t buckle it in the event of snagging and if you don’t have a boat, then your rake will get permanently stuck causing a serious hazard for people and wildlife.A claw weeder is best suited to removing medium weeds from the lawn , whilst a brush tool can scrub small weeds from between paving cracks.

Getting weeds out of lawn often ends up being a labour of love, considering how much time we spend doing it. Despite its length, this garden tool remains lightweight at just 360 g, so it’s not unwieldy or difficult to bring out of storage.Just throw it in a few times to stir up the lake bed and fish with maggots, worms or a zig bug as soon as the rake is out of the water. Weeding tools tend to make weeding lighter work because they’re intended for this purpose, as opposed to using a tool which has many different uses (like a trowel). For a simple tool that will aid your usual weeding tasks, Spear and Jackson have created this Elements Dandelion Weeder– it’s a basic (and inexpensive!

Due to the aluminium and stainless-steel construction, it’s unlikely to rust so could be kept outside as well – but it’s always a better idea to keep tools out of the elements to prolong their life and avoid corrosion.Whilst harder work than more mechanical gardening tools, it certainly makes things easier than doing weeding tasks solely by hand. Whilst they won’t get at the roots of larger weeds, they’re good for dislodging smaller plants before they are able to take root.

There are several different types of weeding tool, some of better suited to certain job than others. One of the best things about short-handled tools is that they can be kept in your pocket, or easily to hand, as you do other gardening tasks. Alternatively, short-handled weeding tools are more precise and better for working in tighter areas . It’s also possible to remove most of the taproot of tough weeds like dandelions due to the decent length of the blade.The overall size of the tool is 35 cm, part of which is taken up by an ash wood handle – it’s comfortable, but can still cause blisters after time, so wearing gloves is recommended. When it comes to long handled weeding tools, you can also consider a weed burner if you want something slightly more dramatic.
