Secateurs are a common tool for completing chores in the garden because they come with a large cutting blade. What are secateurs used for? In a nutshell, secateurs can be used for habitat management (such as trimming branches), cutting, and cleaning a garden area.

In particular, you can use secateurs to trim and shape plants, cut thorny parts, remove damaged foliage, control overgrowing plants, encourage plant growth, trim vegetables, and even harvest vegetables.
