We did not want to use weed killer chemicals (especially next to the storm drain), so the propane weed torch was a sensible IPM choice for initial weed management in our parking strip. My husband also enjoys using his weed burner! Next step will be the garden makeover for this area, which is part of our garden restoration series.

IPM stands for Integrated Pest Management, and it uses a combination of techniques to reduce biological problems of all kinds: insects, weeds, diseases, and even animal pests. IPM is not a single control method; it’s a series of pest management evaluations, decisions and controls, which includes least-harmful approaches, as well as health, economic, and logistical considerations.

CAUTION: In this video we’ll show you how we use our Weed Dragon propane torch for educational purposes only. PLEASE DO NOT use this information as a substitute for the Manufacturer’s Operating Instructions for your own equipment.
