8 Unique Devices That Every Homeowner Needs in Autumn

Autumn is here, and that means it’s time to prepare the garden and yard for winter. Fallen leaves can lead to mold and block sunlight if not removed in time. Therefore, it is advisable to remove them as soon as possible, especially if you can still do something with those leaves. For example, they can be used as fertilizer for your lawn or as insulation material.

In this Bright Side selection, you will find the most suitable and necessary equipment for cleaning the garden of your home.

1. The high quality, adjustable leaf grabbers that fit your hand size and make your fall routine more comfortable. Thanks to the durable material, they can be easily cleaned with water.

These leaf grabbers are great for picking up large piles of leaves, grass clippings, twigs, mulch, or other debris in your yard. They keep your hands clean and dry, and cleaning or sweeping up leaves becomes a simple process. Cleaning is faster because you can pick up more, even on gravel.

Promising review: I recently moved into a house that needs a lot of work and the garden is full of brambles, so when I cut them down, I cannot pick them up without hurting myself (even through leather gloves!) so this product has been a godsend. I use them regularly. I would definitely recommend these. @Nicola

2. The gutter cleaner is made of high-quality, durable material. It helps you get to the hard-to-reach places, i.e. gutters, which require special attention in autumn.

Promising review: I bought one of these last year and was pretty impressed with its performance. When it disappeared to daughter’s house, I’d no qualms about reordering the same item. I knew mine wouldn’t return from my daughter’s! It is so easy to assemble and does its job perfectly. @Blackfive

Promising review: I’m a very keen gardener but love having my nails done! Fabric ones just don’t cut it, they get wet, rip & wreck my nails. You do need to get used to using these, but they’ve been invaluable for me when weeding & cutting! @S Hilton

6. A low-noise impact shredder with a large cutting diameter. For your safety, it is equipped with a plunger that keeps your hands away from the cutting blades.

This shredder has a built-in handle and large wheels to make it easy to move around the yard. The large waste container holds up to 55 liters of shredded material. Two reversible hardened steel blades shred branches, thorns, and shrubs into fine mulch.

Promising review: I had a 6-year-old Christmas tree that was too big now, so it was cut down along with other hedge trimmings. It eats through quite thick branches. The box often needs emptying and putting a safety lock on. It’s not loud, no ear defenders needed. @RANJIT

Promising review: This little leaf muncher is amazing! It was so easy to put together. It easily folds for storage. It’s easy to push along, and the slatted rollers just sweep up the leaves and twigs. It’s a bit bulky to pick up, but that helps to keep it on the ground. No petrol! Without a battery, it is ECO-friendly. That’s great! I was really surprised. @Sandy
