Antonio from Brownsville, Texas writes

I need to spray tall trees 30-40 feet.

Please suggest sprayers. I have worms that are eating the leaves of my trees, but I do not have a sprayer that can reach them. I lost a nice, simple plastic container that was good.

Answer:

The Chapin Slide Pump Sprayer is a special type of sprayer that works kind of like some of the old time water guns.  The sprayer is actually a short hose.  You would place the water and/or your solution in a 5 gallon bucket or other container.  One end of the sprayer goes into the bucket or container and sucks the water up, basically acting like a siphon.  The other end of the hose is the end that you hold and the water sprays out of.  By working the "slide" back and forth it sucks up water out of the bucket and then when you slide the handle forward it forces the water out under pressure.  We have tested this in our warehouse and it truly does shoot 25 feet at the least. Please click on the product page link above and you will find the video in the middle of the page.
