Thanks for checking out our information on the best weed burners UK advice. No gardener or home owner likes the sight of weeds in their lawns, gardens, borders, yards, driveways or anywhere else they tend to grow. They are just unsightly and more often than not difficult to get rid off, at least in a permanent way.<\/p>\n

Most people in the UK will initially try some form of weed killer and some of those can work. Weed killers can be an issue though if you have kids or pets around the home. There is also the time that you have to wait for those to work, and they may take several applications.<\/p>\n

Some other people, myself included, have been down on our hands and knees simply trying to pull them out by the roots to get rid of them. That works faster and better, but your back and knees usually pay the price.<\/p>\n

The first time I came across a weed burner was actually watching some TV program about people living in Alaska. They produced one of these weed burners to blast away large areas of weeds. There is no doubt that they are highly effective and work really quickly.<\/p>\n

Some buyers also use these to help de-ice frozen paths in the winter time. Some also use them on frozen pipes though some care is required when doing that.  Some users also use these for lighting BBQs though we think that is a little extreme.<\/p>\n

When we looked into these in more detail, we also found that they were surprisingly cheaper than we would have imagined.<\/p>\n

What is a weed burner?<\/h3>\n

A weed burner, sometimes called a flame burner, is a tool that can generate a flame. That flame is then directed at the weed to burn it and prevent it from growing again.<\/p>\n

The heat of the flame over a weed to heat destroys the cells of the plant, causing them to burst. The idea is that the heat from the flame destroys the stem of the plant, effectively killing the weed. This method of weeding can kill some annual weeds for good, however perennial weeds will require several weed-burning treatments.<\/p>\n

They can also be used for de-icing pavements, de-freezing brass water pipes and lighting BBQ grills.<\/p>\n

Why use a weed burner?<\/h3>\n

The heat from the weed burner destroys the internal cell structures of the weeds causing them to wither and die within 1-2 days. It leaves the garden completely safe for children and animals immediately after use.<\/p>\n

The main benefits of using a weed burner are as follows:<\/p>\n
