Cordless leaf vacuum for acorns?

[ElleSkywalker]

Anyone found one that works? Heads hurting looking at Amazon! Needs to be cordless, collect oak leaves and acorns and also blow away cobwebs in stables

Swizzels sweet shop faves for all

Not really but they are better for leaves, the acorns are usually to heavy to be sucked up

good petrol one might work ?

Ours is and it fills up very quickly with leaves and you have to keep emptying and then not many acorns in it.

Personally having looked into these a few years ago we came to the conclusion it would be easier to get pigs. (We didn't get pigs either )

Hum. To be honest the main function will be to blow away cobwebs in stables and the acorn collecting was a secondary bonus. Might be better to get a cheap blower then and carry on collecting acorns with a rake

If you can exclude the horses for a while, the squirrels get 'em.

Don't think the squirrels like them as they are oak apples

Your squirrels must be fussier than mine

Puzzled! Are they acorns (the fruit of the oak tree) or oak apples (caused by the oak gall wasp)?

I understood OP as meaning that there were galls on the acorns.

Oak apples because of the wasps. They are heavier than normal acorns so don't think a vacuum would work on them
