Require a licence to buy a weed burner because of the potential fire risk

Petition Details

I want it to be made illegal to purchase a weed burner without a license, which should be limited to registered, qualified gardeners.

Additional Information

Weed burners in the wrong hands can and do cause fires in gardens which can spread to property endangering life.

Weed burners have the potential to cause fires which can spread to property and endanger life.

Fire Brigades across the UK are dealing with fires caused by weed burners.

Only experienced trained gardeners should be able to purchase and use them.
