TIPS & TRICKS- Use the Weasel WeedPopper® on moist soils where the least amount of effort will be required. You will also have a greater chance of extracting the entire root structure of the weed.- Be sure to identify your weeds. Mechanical weed extractors like the Weasel WeedPopper® are most effective for weeds with taproots.- When inserting the Weasel WeedPopper® into the ground, position the tool directly over the weed and push down in a straight vertical motion; this technique increases your chance of capturing the full root without breakage.- Inspect your lawn and gardens regularly for weeds. If you get to the weeds before they become completely established with deep roots, you have a better chance of full extraction.- In a pinch, the Weasel WeedPopper® can be used effectively as an aerator to improve air circulation and water flow to and around root systems.
