You may find it useful to have a both a short-handled and long-handled weeding tool in your shed as they each have their own strengths and weaknesses. However, if you only want one – go for the tool that best suits the majority of the terrain that you have in your garden.

Write: DIY Garden (Harris Creative Ltd), Lytchett House, 13 Freeland Park, Wareham Road, Poole, Dorset, BH16 6FA Clearing weeds and moss from between paving without kneeling down isn’t always possible, but the Wolf-Garten FBM Multi-Change Weeding Brush makes it a lot easier. It’s one of the best weeding tools for clearing smaller weeds from patios, especially if you want to avoid crouching or resting on your knees. Finding the best weeding tool for your garden will depend on the terrain that you have. As mentioned above, if you only want one tool – consider which terrain you have most of in your garden. It’s not particularly easy to use this tool in very hard ground, which is one downside, and you may need to loosen soil first especially if it is quite baked and solid.

Of course, there are also weeding tools that aren’t capable of removing long rooted weeds, so you need to choose carefully depending on what you require.

Can be reeled across the surface to pull in rafts of blank Requires virtually no strength meaning even those with injuries or limited mobility will find it easy to use The tool is inserted into the ground beside the weed, and then a levering motion is used to get the weed out of the ground.
