Nettles?


Recommended Posts


I dunno what the deal is, when I was a kid and got stung it hurt for half an hour or so at best, now after a session with the ferrets my hands are tingling for a couple of days I am either getting soft in my old age or the sods are getting worse. We haven't had a decent frost really so they are everywhere

I was really tempted to mix a napsak of roundup (commercial stuff, not the b&q crap) and blitz a few miles of hedgerow back in October to encourage the buggers to die back and less to come through the following year but never got around to it.

 

For what it will cost, I'm almost definitely gonna do it this autumn so I can at least have some fun! Only managed to get out 3 times so far this year.

Seem's theres a clump of nettles in ever hole this year, hands were buzzing last time out. We have only had about three light frosts down here and the hedges starting to shoot again.

 

Cheers Arry
