weed puller

Garden hand tool

A weed puller is a hand tool designed to extract weeds from the ground, typically with a forked or clawed end that grips the plant at the root: The weed puller made quick work of the dandelions.

The goal is removing the entire root system to prevent regrowth, which distinguishes it from simply cutting weeds at the surface.
