Weed killer
 
I have one of those cheap (£15) Gas WeedKillers and am having difficulty
finding replacement gas canisters with a screw fitting. Has anyone found a
supplier.
Many thanks

I have never seen one but are they not the same as those for blow lamps
and camping gas lights etc?

Perhaps.
But I assume the enquiry is about canisters for the Weed Wand.
Any garden centre that stocks the wand should also stock the canisters.
I have had no trouble sourcing them for mine.

Funny I thought it was a standard fitting for blow lamps etc. Tried the
plumbing section ina DIY shed?

They do but not instantly and things with persistant roots, dandelions
thistles etc need repeated treatment. I suspect many people either try to
incinrate the top growth rather as they go than just flash the flame over
it. It's the blast of heat that ruptures the plants cells that does for
the plant.

Yep.

No!
As I said, I got a replacement canister from B&Q. End of story!
