What is a brushcutter?

Some brush is just too tough for most garden tools to trim – especially when you have young trees and shrubs growing wild in parts of the yard. This is where a brushcutter can come in useful. 

Fitted with a sharp, spinning blade, brushcutters can cut through weeds and woody stems up to a few inches thick. They’re often the perfect tool to use when areas of the yard have become wild and unruly, with bigger weeds than you could handle with a lighter tool like a string trimmer.
