Q: The handle of the Jibber Gear Pooper Scooper seems a little small!
A: In designing the Jibber Gear Pooper Scoopers we considered all handle sizes. We settled on 3/4 inch diameter because it was the best for lightness, control and general feel and control of the scooper. Important: HOW TO HOLD THE JIBBER GEAR POOPER SCOOPER - The handle should be lightly gripped, not squeezed like a spade or a baseball bat. The long handle should flow through your hand (lightly gripped) and ride or rest under your forearm for leverage. This gives the greatest amount of control over the scoop. The Scoops are very ergonomically designed to be comfortable to hold, effective and fun to use!

Q: A long handled pooper scooper is genius!  How did you choose that?
A: Long-handled tools for poop scooping are much easier to use and especially for people with back problems.  We tested various lengths and found the perfect fit!

Q: What do I do when I skewer the poop and it's stuck to end of my Scooper?
A: Dump what you can in your pail, put the Scooper head on the ground and pull it backward through the grass. This will pull the poop off the end and then just scoop it up and dump it in the pail.

Q: How often do I need to scoop my backyard?
A: Well, that depends on the size of your dog and number of dogs. But a good rule of thumb is every 3-5 days! Using your Jibber Gear Pooper Scooper is fun and you will enjoy and appreciate it!

Q: What should I use for a waste container?
A: I like to use a five-gallon pail with a 13-gallon trash liner in it. I hold the pail in my left hand and Scooper in my right and go to town. I walk back and forth across the lawn at about 10-foot spacings and it takes me no time at all to do the entire backyard.

Q: Do you have any tips on how to fix the burn marks (dead spots) in my lawn from my dog's poop and pee?
A: Yes I can help you with that. This is an easy fix and will have grass up and growing within 7 to 10 days. I usually fix the spots right after I mow the yard. First, I mow the lawn with the bagger on and gather some lawn clippings, and then I take a hand full of grass seed and spread over the burned or dead area. Then I rough up that area with a hard tined rake or one of those small four-tined cultivator tools. You could even use a hoe for this. Your Jibber Gear Pooper Scooper is not designed to be used as a lawn rake, so save it for your more precision work of scooping poop. After the spot has been seeded and roughed up a little I spread ½ to an inch of grass clippings over the freshly seeded area. I give it a little water with the hose and you are on your way for some very nice new grass. Depending where you live, the type of grass you have, time of season, you may have to water it once a day or every other day for the first week. You will be on your way to having a great looking lawn.
