FAQ

How do I use my Simple Scooper?

To start using your Walden Simple Scooper, first, you need to tilt the Scooper forward and activate the sweeping claw with a squeeze of a hand lever in order to flick the "target" into the attached bag. Once you’ve finished collecting waste, or once the bag is more than half-full, pull the bag clip away to release the bag. Dispose of the waste bag and attach a new bag to the mouth of the tool.

What are the ideal conditions for using my Simple Scooper?

The Simple Scooper works best when the grass is short and dry.

How often should I scoop waste from my yard?

This depends on the number of pets you own, but at the very least you should aim for scooping once every year. JUST KIDDIN'. We suggest scooping at least twice a week to keep your yard odor- and parasite-free, and your lawn healthy. With multiple furry friends, expect more waste, so scooping daily might be necessary. Consider increasing your scooping frequency in hot weather too, as waste decomposes faster in high heat, requiring more frequent scooping to avoid various unpleasantries. The good news is, your Walden Simple Scooper will save you a great deal of time even with daily clean ups, making the entire scooping process a breeze, and the chore - easy on your back.

How do you clean a pooper scooper?

Keeping your Walden Simple Scooper clean is essential for ‘good garaging’ practices. Once you’ve removed the waste bag from your simple scooper, simply spray down the scooping surfaces with a hose every so often. For tougher messes, use a disinfectant solution appropriate for both steel and plastic, like diluted bleach or a commercial pet disinfectant. Rinse thoroughly and allow the scooper to air dry well.

What if the poop is, well, not quite solid?

If the target is less like a cigar and more like mashed potatoes, most scoopers will make a mess. We actually did test the Simple Scooper on mashed-potatoes-like quality targets, and were glad to see that the teeth of the raking arm did a surprisingly good job of raking the ‘taters out of the grass and into the waste bag. Just make sure you give your Scooper an extra good rinse afterwards.

My dog is pretty darn big. Does the Simple Scooper work for owners with large dogs?

Yes. Unless you’ve considered the need for hydraulics in your backyard cleanup practices, this tool should do the job for you. Consider getting a good supply of waste bags (most household plastic bags should do the job) as you may need to replace them more frequently with your beast. We know your furry friend is worth it.

Can I use common bags? I’d rather not have to buy special bags.

Yes. You can use just about any common medium to large plastic bag with your Simple Scooper. We encourage folks to repurpose household bags that might otherwise just be thrown away to get another use out of them. Those old plastic grocery bags will make the perfect "sacrifice" for a good cause. Be sure to check for holes at the bottom of your bag before using it with your pooper scooper to make sure your pick up efforts do not go in vain.
