Spray bottle "holster" on a push mower?

Post by schreibdave » May 6th, 2020, 5:38 am

While mowing I find myself stopping and bending over to pull weeds as I go or I make a mental note of a weed and plan to come back with the appropriate spray bottle. I was considering fashioning a holster of sorts on the vertical portion of the handle on my push mower to hold one or more small spray bottles of WBG, CCO, Tenacity, etc so that I could spray as I went. I was thinking about using a short length of PVC pipe or something similar. Has anyone done this?

I will carry marking flags in my pocket so I can come back to a weed. But I like where you're going too....

I'm thinking of fashioning a holster of sorts from a short section of pvc pipe. Maybe held onto the mower with zip ties. Drop a spray bottle into the holster and away you go. I'll post pictures if I ever do it.

I adore this. :-) I'm now thinking about Pringles cans and the like (although I tended to use those for soap making, I can give one up).
