How Does It Work?
The Weedsteamer is specially designed to create super-heated
water and wet steam which destroy weeds on contact. The steam
rapidly raises the temperature of water held within plant cells
causing them to expand, destroying the cell wall structure, an
effect known as plasmolysis. The result is total and immediate
destruction of soft tissue.
The targeted weeds wilt immediately and brown off within
1-3 days and decompose into the soil adding to soil humus.
