Sprayers Make Quick and Easy Work of Fertilizing and Pest Control

Having a beautiful yard takes consistent and ongoing work on the part of the homeowner. Functional landscape plans usually have several parts, each of which requires its own mode of care. However, there are some tasks that span across various species of plants and trees, so having tools that accommodate these needs is important. Both plants, flowers and trees need fertilizer, for example, making a garden sprayer a useful addition to your landscape maintenance toolkit.

Garden sprayers are most commonly used to apply liquid fertilizer or to spray an area with a pesticide. Fertilizer, of course, provides nutrients to the plants in your landscape, while pesticides are designed to obliterate harmful pests in the environment that may damage or kill your plants. Most garden sprayers and fertilizer spreaders are comprised of a small tank, some hoses and a spray nozzle. Liquid fertilizer is mixed in the reservoir tank according to the package directions and then dispensed through the spray nozzle and onto the plants. The correct type of liquid fertilizer to use will depend on the plant being dealt with. Some all-purpose formulations may properly feed a wide variety of plants. However, some plants, such as rose bushes, benefit from more specific types of fertilizer.

Garden sprayers and fertilizer spreaders come in several different sizes, but they all basically work the same. However, for homeowners that require a portable model, there are several backpack sprayers that attach right to the body. These allow you to spray or feed your plants, trees and foliage without impeding your arms. A backpack sprayer is probably the most convenient type for the average user. These models of sprayers are particularly suited for tasks that require climbing, as they ensure that you remain safe when ascending or descending a ladder. Many models feature a lightweight, but supportive, bottom frame to hold the tank in place and make sure that all the parts and pieces remain balanced and functional as you work. While different sprayers hold different amounts of liquids, the most common volume for backpack sprayer tanks is around four gallons; this size allows users to cover significant areas without removing the tank, but is also light enough to comfortably handle. Depending on the model, prices begin at well under $50 and can go into the several-hundred-dollar range.

It's important to note that sprayers that can dispense liquid fertilizers work differently than fertilizer spreaders that dispense fertilizer granules. Liquid spreaders and sprayers feature an enclosed tank, while solid fertilizer spreaders have a hopper with an open top. Always know your needs before selecting the right spreader. Sears offers both types of spreaders, as well as the fertilizers and pesticides that make these useful yard tools functional.
