The Extractigator is a high quality hand tool for the easy removal of woody invasive plants, such as Gorse, Woolly Nightshade, Broom, Privet, Barberry and many more…With the Extractigator, you can remove woody trees up to 5cm diameter easily - by hand, with minimal soil disturbance - ROOTS AND ALL!
The best non Toxic Solution.
Special Combo Price - Big Daddy Extractigator and Classic size for $995, saving you $100. (Only available in NZ - Australian customers are advised to purchase the Big Daddy and Junior combination, due to post restrictions on length.)
The Big Daddy is a great tool for getting out the largest most gnarly weedy trees, with the jaw capacity of up to 8.2cm. The unique ratcheting system means you can get really big plants out without using a lot of strength.
For most jobs weedy trees though, the classic is the easiest size to use, as it is a simpler work flow, lighter and easier to get in and maneuver around the trunks of the trees. As you pick the tool up, the jaws open, dropping the plan and as you place it around the trunk of the next one, they close again, locking on to the next trunk/ stem.
This combo would be great for areas with a lot of old and gnarly weed infestations - the classic can get in and remove most of the plants, with the Big Daddy there for the most gnarly large trees with the larger diameter.
Great for team work!
*update May 2024;
This item is no longer available to Australian customers due to a change in parcel dimension restrictions. The Junior and Big Daddy size are still available.
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.
