Removing acorns from driveways and lawns. We have a petrol driven leaf sweeper which is wonderful for leaves but wont touch the acorns.

Hello Oakgirl, Wagger and i are on the same wavelength. try using a tine rake as you would for leaves. think of the exercise as a bonus.

Dustpan and brush. Could try fixing dustpan or its larger equivalent to a long handle and pushing it.by hand. Keep a few in a jar with damp moss and watch them sprourt . Mighty Oak Trees from tiny acorns grow.

Wet/dry Shopvac baby! I use it around my pots to clean out leaves and debri. I told my friend about this trick and she laughed at me, but it works really well!
