Thanks to British Gardening manufacturer Hozelock, there is now a brand new way to eliminate weeds.
The Wonderweederis the latest in gardening innovation from Hozelock which isan efficient, alternative solution for treating weeds on driveways, paths and patios.
The Wonderweeder, designed by gardeners, for gardeners, is the perfect solution to help remove those unwantedand annoying invasive weeds that gardeners hate.
Latest research shows that over 41%* of gardeners are concerned about over spraying weed killer onto other plants and a massive 60% do not like bending down to remove the frustrating weeds.

Perfect for spot weeding, the Wonderweeder has many advantages over a traditional sprayer:
- Hassle Free–The upright design allows weeds to be treated without the need to bend down. Not only this, it is easily operated by using the push-down handle at the top.
- Precision Spraying – The nozzle located within the protective cone allows precise spraying at all times. This avoids the accidental spraying of surrounding plants.
- Reusable – It can be used over and over again and filled with your choice of weed killer.
- No wastage – The central reservoir tube has a 300ml capacity. The tube is 1 metre long and enables the treatment of weeds in hard to reach areas. The handy dosing cap in the handle is graduated from 1ml to 5ml to help with mixing concentrate solution.
