The Pitch
Im a baby boomer and im from the south. We like our lawns there, i mean really like them. Over the years I've picked up a lot of injuries to my knees and my back so kneeling and bending over isnt an option for me.
So when i bought my house in seattle a couple of years ago and started to get rid of the crabgrass and the dandelions i discovered i needed something better than the usual herbicide applicators. The pump-up ones i have to carry on my back and the wand is short so i cant stand up straight and appy without overspraying and drifting. The applicators on the gallon jugs you have to bend over or kneel to use and thats a painful way to spend an afternoon.
So i invented WickIt!
Impact
WickIt! attaches to the sprayers that come with your usual herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, moss-killers, etc etc. It gives you a full 35" of reach. and most importantly allows you to apply the liquid exactly where you want, minimum muss and fuss, while standing upright comfortably.
What We Need & What You Get
I need $50k to complete a patent, start mass-production, get warehouse space, and start shipping and selling them. Everyone that donates over $25.00 will recieve a Wickit! for free.
