Re: Weed Burners?

Right art, spoke to the voice of authority, she doesn’t reckon much to the weed burner she has, hence it not being used much
If the weeds are dry it’s ok, problem is, weeds are full of moisture,as any plant is, so they don’t burn easily, if you have a block paved drive, then you could buy one of those long handled wire brushes, although you will have to refill the joints with paving sand, a lot of work, so it’s up to you I guess,

Re: Weed Burners?

I have seen weed burners being used and they look lethal to me certainly not something I would feel comfortable using I would probably set myself on fire .

Oh Primus, in all your pain and discomfort, you went to all this trouble, for me, Thank You.

I have one of those long handled wire brushes but l thought the burner might be quicker and less work.
It sounds like it would be no good in this damp weather.
