When using shears or secateurs, you should always wear a sturdy pair of gardening gloves, the thicker the better as you will be working with thorns and other prickly plants that can cut or scrape you, not forgetting the sharpness of the blades themselves so they should be used carefully and kept in a safe place away from children after use. You should always lock the safety catch after use as an extra precaution.
A good pair of shears or secateurs will last for ages if you look after them properly. Keep them sharp as a blunt pair will rag or crush stems which could possibly cause damage or disease to the plant. When cutting, hold the stem of the plant securely as it will be much easier to make a clean, accurate cut. Once the job's complete, always clean the blades after use to remove any dried sap. Keeping the blades lightly oiled by wiping them with an old rag will also prolong their life.
