Wanted - kerosene (or paraffin) blow lamp for burning out weeds in lawn
- I want to remove weeds from my lawn, and avoid toxic herbicides.
- Butane blow torches available at Bunnings cost about $1 a minute, so I want to use an old blow torch, see picture. Just use cheap kero or paraffin, which I have already. 'Used to be used by plumbers and mechanics, etc.
- The one I recently got from TradeMe, despite claiming it worked, didn't work well. I lacks a tight piston, that's all I really need (has to be leather to cope with heat, local shops don't have it). But maybe I'll find a working one here in Neighbourly. I've got inquiries going in India Online too. They use them over there.
- The Trading Centre on Tremaine has some but they look in very old condition and their piston may not work either. I want a working one.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
