Our Favorite Tools From This Past Year
Here are a few of our top choices from this year. If you see anything you like, all items are linked below their description. Thank you for choosing Yard Dudes for your exterior property service needs throughout 2023. Happy New Year to all!
Battery-Powered Gas Siphon: Small, efficient, reliable, and portable this battery powered gas siphon is an amazing tool. Winterizing equipment is one of the most important steps when it comes to maintaing your machines and this makes it quick and simple.
Bolt Extractors: Bolts can be one of the most frustrating things to deal with on outdoor equipment. Rounded bolts are a pain to deal with and nobody wants to drill through them. Bolt extractors allow you to dodge that step. They have notched teeth to catch the rounded bolt and take it off like its brand new.
Horseshoe Hoe: Weeding all day long on your hands and knees is exhausting! We utilize horseshoe hoes as often as possible because they're great and clearing large areas of weeds with single swipes. All you have to do is angle the horseshoe hoe so that the blade edge is set to catch the turf and pull back. Be sure to get back in there and remove any leftover roots after using.
Dual Pruning Sheath: A must-have for everyday gardeners, the dual pruning sheath is made to hold both your soil knife as well as your hand pruners. This is an unbelievably convinient tool and we stand by it! All of our horticulture crew members use these at each and every jobsite.
Atlas Gardening Gloves: If your going to wear gloves, Atlas is the way to go. They are ultra thin and super comfy, the wrist section scrunches to prevent any dirt from getting in, and you can even use your phone while wearing them.
EasyBloom 1000 Plant Sensor: The EasyBloom uses the exact same technology to test soil used by NASA on the Mars Phoenix mission. Simply plug it in via USB to your laptop, set it to recommend mode, then leave it placed in your soil for 24 hours and plug it back into your computer. It will provide you a list of plants that will grow well in the area, (recommend mode) It can also diagnose sick plants and tell you how to bring them back to health. (diagnose mode)
Pittsburg Automotive Compact Air Compressor: One of our favorites, this thing is portable and perfect for filling car, equipment, and trailer tires. Connects directly to your car battery so it doesn't require an outlet and even comes with extra tips for all your pumping needs.
