Mechanical Weed Control
& Integrated Weed Management
Weeds are opportunistic plants, which will take hold on a hard surface wherever there is a build up of soil. A Weed Brush or Gravel Path renovator can remove both the offending weed and the build up of soil it is growing in.
We offer a range of tools for accomplishing this feat on different surfaces and for different applications. The best time of year for carrying out this operation is Winter, when the soil is more obvious and before the new growing season begins in spring. By removing the soil, you will dramatically reduce the new growth, especially of annual plants.
All the Weed Brushes and Gravel Path Renovators from Kersten are backed with a 2 year Warranty. You can be confident they will work hard and deliver great results for many years.
