But scrabbling about on your hands and knees to remove them from flower beds or patios can be back-breaking labour.
The LAWFYMORI Long Handle Weed Puller has an extra long handle that enables the user to extract unwanted vegetation without bending or kneeling down.
As a result it's been billed as an 'ideal gift for seniors' who want to continue to enjoy their gardens but want to avoid running the risk of injury.
The 2-in-1 head means the tool can be used as a both a weed rake or a garden hoe.
The weed puller also has an adjustable handle, meaning it can be extended or shortened to either 42 cm, 79 cm, 115 cm or 150 cm.
One reviewer on Amazon called the tool, which retails at £21.99, a "weeding game changer".
They wrote: "Weeding - one of the worst things about the spring and summer months!
"With this tool, it is not nearly as bad - it is even satisfactory! Perfect for what I need - I was going to buy a hoe but came across this which is much better.
"The rake side makes it so easy to pull out the whole weed (inc. roots) from the soil and gravel areas without bending and the hoe is good for weeds on the paving / driveway.
"The hoe part is smaller than most dutch hoes but it still does the job. This tool will make it a lot easier to keep on top of the endless weeds that grow everywhere."

Another reviewer wrote: "This is excellent for pulling out tough weeds in your garden.
"I struggle when I kneel down, so buying this has made the task of taking the weeds out so much easier.
"It gets out stubborn thistles too. I would highly recommend this weed puller and the seller. The package came quickly and was well wrapped. It is easy to assemble as well.
While the LAWFYMORI has an average 4.5 star rating on Amazon, not everyone was entirely smitten with the product - with several reporting issues with the handle.
One user said "the handle came off a few times" and reported that they were considering using glue to fix it in.
Another wrote: "Handy enough tool and lightweight but after using it for a few minutes the top handle kept popping off.
"Heres my fix. take the top off and wrap the top end of the shaft with plumers UVP tape the force the top back on.
"Design flaw? Maybe. Easy enough fix? Sure. But should I have to have fixed it for them? No."

He went on to add: 'I think all logic has gone out the window with these people. They have a backyard they could use for a kiddy pool. 'There is most definitely a hose in the backyard. 'I wouldn't of even cared if the pool was under the car port up towards the wall. 'The fact I had to walk around a pool and crack my car door and squeeze in is what p***ed me off the most.'

The fire can also be seen slowly creeping its way through the roof of the structure - which appears to have caved in - sending even more smoke high above the warehouse. Surrounding the burning structure are a number of other buildings, including one bearing branding from supermarket Tesco while another appears to belong to delivery company Yodel. Cars can also be seen driving along the M25 motorway just metres away from the blaze. Countless locals have taken to social media to share pictures of the fire, with some images showing the inferno sending smoke upwards in large dark plumes. LFB said its crews received the first of around 30 calls at approximately 8.05pm on Saturday evening.
