How chemical-free weed control succeeds<\/h1><\/div>

THE heatweed TECHNOLOGY - A LEADER IN SUSTAINABILITY<\/h3><\/div>

heatweed has over 35 years of experience in the professional treatment of weeds and invasive plants. With the hot water method, heatweed has been the leader for years. The water is heated to 106 degrees Celsius and reaches the cells of the roots at 98 to 99 degrees Celsius. With these temperatures, heatweed achieves the greatest and most lasting effectiveness. Studies have confirmed this several times.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

THE heatweed TECHNOLOGY - A LEADER IN SUSTAINABILITY<\/h3><\/div>

Killing roots requires a systemic effect, the easiest way to achieve this is through heat input. Researchers at Ghent University found that hot water transfers 23 to 27 times more heat energy than hot air or steam. Reason enough to choose the best hot water method from heatweed.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

WHAT TEMPERATURE AND WHY?<\/h3><\/div>

The systemic effect on the root is achieved with water at exactly 106\u00b0C, which still measures about 98\u00b0C to 99\u00b0C when in contact with the cells of the root. Too low or fluctuating temperature values are not promising. In addition, the heatweed method promises the longest \"regrowth time\" and convinces with the best results at the lowest total cost per square metre of treated area (compared to other chemical-free methods).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE SEEDS?<\/h3><\/div>

When seeds germinate, they are more sensitive to heat. Some simply die, others are persistent. For example, annual wild weeds or weed species can often be destroyed in the first year by a single heatweed treatment. Perennial plants require some patience - their root system needs more than one treatment. By the way, anything growing next to the plant roots 2-3 mm below the surface will be preserved.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

HOW OFTEN DOES THE METHOD NEED TO BE APPLIED?<\/h3><\/div>

Research by the University of Copenhagen has shown that treatment with hot water achieves the best result. Even high treatment frequencies have no effect on the life below the surface - roots excluded. Hot water method of heatweed to decide.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The comparison makes you safe<\/h1><\/div>

The heatweed method uses the energy of hot water to sustainably control weeds in urban areas while protecting the habitat of other plants. It is more efficient, more ecological and easier than any other method. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
