Chris Head Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Spent a couple of days getting down and dirty with approx 1000m2 of a pond surround HEAVILY infested with brambles. The brushcutter stands about 1,8m high & the brambles reached close to 3m in places! With good kit, a good mashing technique and and alot of scratces the job was done and cleared in less than two days. HOWEVER, if you're going into ground like that, try & scout it first for hornets & wasps nests, an hour spent carefully watching and listening could save alot of grief!

I'm only seeing the photobucket html codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonzjob Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Blimey Chris, you described what you had done, but I hadn't realised that they were that big! I take it that you didn't find any nests?I found a small one in the end of the summer cover for our pool a short while back and got stung for my trouble. Just as well it was only a small one because it was so very unexpected! It didn't last long! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
