When you need to deal with specific problem spots without bringing out the heavy machinery, the Hedgehog Multi Tool is a must-have in the shed. Designed for precision aeration of fine turf, it’s the ideal solution for tackling localised compaction on greens, approaches, or any high-traffic area that needs a bit of relief.

The Hedgehog’s sharp spikes penetrate the surface to improve air and water movement right where it’s needed. This makes it an excellent tool for preparing small patches for overseeding. By creating a pattern of small, deep holes, you ensure superb seed-to-soil contact, which leads to better germination rates and faster turf recovery. It’s a simple, manual process that gives you complete control over the application.

Like all our tools, the Hedgehog is built to last. Manufactured by us in the UK from welded steel with a durable finish, it’s a tough, no-nonsense bit of kit that will stand up to daily use for years. This product is sold as the head only, ready to be fitted to your preferred standard tool handle.

How It Works

  • Secure the Hedgehog head to a standard rake or tool handle.
  • Identify the compacted or worn area of turf.
  • Place the tool on the turf and press down firmly with your foot or by hand to create aeration holes.
  • For overseeding, apply seed before or after spiking to ensure it settles into the holes for good soil contact.
  • Lift and repeat across the target area. It’s that simple.

FAQ

Q: Does it come with a handle?

A: No, this is for the head only. It’s designed to fit most standard rake or tool handles.

Q: What’s the difference between the Hedgehog and the Weasel (35100)?

A: The Hedgehog uses spikes for aeration and creating seed pockets. The Weasel has blades designed to tear out shallow-rooted weeds and thatch. Use the Hedgehog for aeration and seeding prep; use the Weasel for surface clean-up and weed removal.

Q: How deep do the spikes penetrate?

A: The spikes are designed for effective surface aeration, penetrating approximately 40-50mm into the soil, depending on compaction and ground conditions.
