Abstract

A weed removal apparatus that allows an individual to remove a weed by driving the apparatus into the ground above a weed and then pulling the apparatus out of the ground, pulling the weed along with it. The apparatus comprises a shaft that has a top mounted handle attached to it and a spike on the bottom end Attached to the shaft near the bottom end is a wire having a corkscrew-like configuration, with this wire also culminating in a point.The spike is pressed into the ground above a weed, the apparatus is turned, thereby enveloping the weed, and the weed is dislodged as the apparatus is pulled up. The wire also has the effect of ripping apart any weed root material that still remains in the ground, thereby increasing the chance that the weed will not grow back once the weed has been removed.
