PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a weeding tool that can pull out a plant such as a weed by the roots.SOLUTION: A weeding tool 1, which is a tool for pulling out a weed which sprouted and grew from a core including a seed as a starting point, has a sticking part 3 which can be stuck into the soil. The sticking part 3 includes: a surrounding part 4 which can surround the root of the weed in the state that the sticking part is stuck into the soil; and a catching part 5 which can catch the core of the weed (a part which was originally a seed) in the course of pulling out the sticking part from the soil. The sticking part 3 is openably/closably formed, can take the root of the weed inside the surrounding part 4 by sticking the sticking part into the soil in the state that it is opened, and can guide the catching part 5 toward the core of the weed by pulling out the sticking part from the soil in the state that it is closed. The catching part 5 is a long and narrow gap connected with the space surrounded by the surrounding part 4. By using such a tool, the risk of damaging or cutting the root of a weed to be pulled out can be eliminated, and therefore the weed is pulled out by the roots. |
