Clearing our Land -Puerto Rico
Jerry and I are both working about 2 or 3 hours a day in the 90 degree sun on our property. The goal is to clear all of the Pica Pica before the season hits. Here are some pictures and a video to give you and idea what we are up against:
Choose your weapon!

That’s a whole lot of cutting!
Watch ‘Romancing the Stone’ for machete tips from Michael Douglas.
Glasgow used to have lots of guys with machetes, no Pica Pica though…but then they introduced a knife ban.

Bulbboy:
They have a knife ban that prohibits machetes? How do people clear their land now? I can see a ban on carrying around pocket knives or blades over 4 inches in public…but a complete ban?

How do people cut their land? Flymo and strimmers mostly. Pica Pica isn’t really a huge problem over here.

What in the hell is a flymo and/or strimmer? Is that like a weedwacker

[...] don’t know if you remember how much work it was for us to maintain our property when we first moved to Rincon, but it was some major work. It is quite possibly just as hard now, [...]
