The very clever Zero Weeding Brush has a long handle which means that you don?t have to do any bending at all, when weeding.

You start by mixing some Zero Glyphosate with water at the strength you need. Make it a bit stronger if you?re dealing with tough weeds.

Zero Glyphosate?s available in a super strong 490 grams per litre. This makes it very economical because it goes such a long way.

Take off the top and carefully pour the mix into the hollow handle. Then screw the top firmly back into place. Remove the cap and you will see the brush. All you have to do is push the bristles against a hard surface, wait until the glyphosate wets the bristles and you are ready for action.

It is so easy to walk around painting the weeds at arm?s length and there is no more need to bend. When you have finished, simply wash the bristles under running water and put the cap back. Your brush is then ready for next time you spot a weed.

Zero?s Big Gun is even easier because it is ready to use and because it is so big. There is a 3 litre and a 5 litre container so it?s a great money saver too.

The great thing about glyphosate is that it breaks down quickly in the soil so you can plant in that same spot as soon as the weeds have died.

There are also long term solutions to your weed problems. If your weed problems are in pavers or on a driveway you can use Yates Once A Year weeder. Remember, no plants will grow in that spot for the next twelve months, so apply with care. Do it on a flat surface, not somewhere where the long-lasting weed killer will wash down to your lawn or garden bed.

Some people love the look of mossy pathways but they can be slippery and dangerous. Zero Moss & Algae Gun will get rid of unwanted mossy growth with no nasty smell and you won?t have to re-spray for weeks.
