There are several types of lawn tools that could ease gardening and yard work. And we find ourselves out enjoying our lawn or garden much more often when gardening work is easier. Here we will talk about some lawn and garden tools that can make certain tasks less difficult.
A weed planter can make pulling weeds much easier. You may not mind squatting down to pull weeds, but if you find yourself putting off pulling a weed for some great weed pulling session, may be you would benefit from the use of a weed planter. These clever equipments let you simply remove weeds without having to crouch or fight with weeds. A good weed puller is definitely a must have if you have back problems.

Lawn tools like lawn edgers help keep everything crisp and neat. Not only do edgers keep borders even and kempt, but can prolong the time you have before trimming excess growth in the garden. While keeping walkways safely clear of excess grass growth, edgers control grass growth of hardier strains like St. Augustine for the main lawn.
Aerators are a great way to easily aerate lawn and garden beds. There are simple straight forward aerators that are ideal for aerating lawns if you do not want to break up the turf. These will also cut down on the development of thatch. For gardens and flower beds I recommend something like the Garden Claw. These little tools are remarkable for their simplicity and their power. I once used one to do the entire first plowing session of a forty by forty foot double dug garden plot. It cut right through the thick grass as it crumbled the earth. Lawn tools like Garden Claws are also great for weeding around garden plants.
These are important tools to have if you don't have a lot of time to do everything manually. Planters can help shave off time if you have a busy planting schedule at different times of the year. You might want to install a timed sprinkler system for watering. If you have many garden or flower beds, consider using t-tape and a daily timer. This is inexpensive, conserves water and your time! So as you can see having a nice lawn is a bit of work of course but I could say it is worth the work. This is why it is also a must to use the proper lawn tools.
