No need to pump the handle to maintain…
If you are growing Lillies or Fritillaries in your garden you need to be on the lookout for the Red Lily Beetles and their grubs.

I have used my fair share of long reach pole chainsaws over the years so I like to think I know a thing or two about them. Don’t get me wrong, I love my Ryobi brushless chainsaw as well as my Husqvarna 236 14 inch Petrol Chainsaw for general tree work pruning on the ground and logging as shown in the picture below. For tree work at height, I’m thinking of general lopping in my…
