You can get additional cannisters. I get mine locally. Yes you have to keep
singing them and eventually the root does die down, but it is a bit like

A 70 year old friend of mine used one in his greenhouses for over 20 years
succesfully. They are great for sterilising sheds, starting bonfires and
other things too. I would not swap mine for anything."Here nettle nettle
