Professional Bypass Secateurs (Pruning Shears) in Mauritius we call most known as "Sécateur". These are often called Pruning Shears or simply Pruners.
How to Use:
-
Precision Cutting: These work like scissors with two blades passing each other. This design makes clean cuts on live, green stems and branches without crushing the plant tissue.
-
Technique: To ensure a clean cut that heals quickly, hold the pruners so the sharp blade is closest to the part of the plant that will remain.
-
Maintenance: Always wipe the blades clean of sap after use and lock the safety catch for protection.
