Product Information

The springtime, when dandelions bloom, is a good time to get rid of them. The roots probably won't be as big at this point because you'll be catching them before they reseed. The following list of tools will help you get rid of perennial and tap-rooted weeds like dandelions that are difficult to pull out. Long-Handled Garden Hoe A fishtail weeder is exclusively designed for removing dandelions. It has a long pole, along with a compact diameter that allows you to move deep into the soil with much effort. The V-shaped blade can be very useful for removing weeds from the roots. Paving Weeder In reality, however, it’s this distinct, ergonomically designed shape that makes it functional and easy to use. Not only can you remove the weeds, but you can also cultivate the soil in the same action. The signature curved sharp head is made with tempered steel, and designed to easily plow through any type of soil. The handle is made from recycled plastic and the hand grip has an ergonomic design that can be used by both right or left-handed gardeners. It’s not designed for pulling up especially deep roots, like unwanted trees or shrubs, but then again, no hand weeders are really good at deep roots. There is a reason why CobraHead hand weeders are always one of the most popular weeding tools each year on every list — because they are one of the best hand weeders on the market. All CobraHead products are made in the USA.

The length of the handle can also determine the difficulty of controlling it. Short handles may be easy to manage while long handles can be difficult to control hence you may accidentally uproot some plants in the garden. The size of the weeder For those who prefer to garden on their knees, handheld dandelion diggers are useful. To remove weeds from the ground, they have V-nose heads and a curved shaft. Typically, the overall length is 12 inches. The cheapest dandelion weeders are typically hand-held weeders. Cobra Head Weeder In my opinion, the best dandelion weeder is one with a fulcrum, a sort of bulge on the underside of the tool. So, when you insert the tip into the ground at the base of the plant, the fulcrum settles on the ground and, when you push down, it provides additional leverage. Weeds literally fly into the air with this little wonder! I’ve had mine for over 35 years now and it still works perfectly. For more troublesome weeds a glyphosate-based weedkiller (e.g. Doff Path & Patio Weedkiller, SBM Job Done General Purpose Weedkiller or Roundup Ultra) is better suited. Treatment is most effective when the weeds are actively growing, usually between April and September. Flexrake CLA329 is a classic hand weeder and Dandelion removal tool. It’s constructed from quality and durable materials, has a beautiful oak handle with a leather hanger and strong and durable blades from carbon steel.

choosing a tool with a suitable handle that will enable you to exert as little effort as possible while achieving the best possible results.
