The best non Toxic Solution.
The Extractigator BIG DADDY is the largest version in the Extractigator product line. The BIG DADDY shares the same profile as the Extractigator Classic, with thicker material and a longer handle. The Jaws of the BIG DADDY open to a full 8.2cm. You can pull out really big plants with the Big Daddy - Roots and All!
If you are considering which size would be best for your situation, we generally recommend the Classic Size for most applications. The Big Daddy is best for the really big plants that can't be removed with the Classic, and is not recommended as a "one size fits all".

Extractigators NZ
Hi ! I'm Emma. A few years ago I moved with my family moved to a beautiful piece of land on the Coromandel, covered with every invasive weed possible, including Gorse, Woolly nightshade, Barberry, Wattle, Blackberry and more. In our search to find an effective and non toxic solution to clear out the weeds, we discovered "The Extractigator" invented by Shawn Taylor in BC Canada. After one day of using it, we'd cleared a small field of gorse, roots and all, with minimal soil disturbance. I realised we had to bring these down under for others to use! For the past 5 years, customers around NZ and Australia have been reporting back with great reviews, enjoying the simplicity and effectiveness of the tools. Please contact me with any questions, I'm happy to help. We can ship anywhere in NZ or Australia.
