Default Horsetails and Roundup

The message
from "Paul Kelly" contains these words:

Does anyone know of any devices like this? Or could I simply use a

paintbrush?



with some thing like horsetail I'd use a rubber glove - spray glove
liberally with solution and wipe over the weed


Paul's post reminded me of a Beth Chatto tip. Her weeders wear a
cotton glove over a rubber glove, and dip in weedkiller before drawing
the weed through their hand.

An old fashioned dish mop (cotton tassel on a stick) might be easier
than a paintbrush.

Janet.
