My weed wand is a serious piece of kit: lending me a certain air of authority when blasting weeds at several hundred degrees on my front driveway of a weekend. The idea is that you kill the weeds with heat rather than using weedkillers: all very sensible, particularly when dealing with paving areas, although I am not so sure how green the non-recyclable gas cylinders are. The weed wand can also double as a cook's blowtorch for getting the sugar on top of creme brulee, as pictured tonight while preparing dinner. Probably best done outside, though. (The creme brulee, by the way, was delicious).
From the weed wand link: "With push button automatic ignition just a touch from it's [sic] high temperature flame disrupts the cell structure of weeds..."
It disrupts the cell structure? Is that another way to say it burns them?

The weed wand is one of our best sellers week in week out as customers move away from using chemicals when they can. Just be careful when using during a dry period.
