When you want to purchase a brush, it is important to find exactly the right brush for your purposes. If you try to sweep your yard with a broom that is too soft or too small the result will not be the nice clean surface you were hoping for. You must look at the area you want to sweep and think about which type of brush would be best.
Rough surface areas might require sweeping with industrial yard brooms while smoother indoor areas would normally benefit from being swept with a softer indoor brush. One of the most effective types of brushes which comes in varieties suitable for all surfaces is the traditional Australian millet broom.
Why choose a millet broom? Millet brooms are traditionally made with a 100% millet brush and a Tasmanian oak handle. Depending on the type you purchase they can be used anywhere around your home or on outdoor surfaces such as pavers, tiles, bitumen and concrete. If you want to work on rougher surfaces, then you will need to look for a millet broom with a strong cane centre which has the internal strength to deal with the roughest of outdoor surfaces.
Sometimes you need more from a broom than the ability to deal with a smooth or a rough surface. Often a broom must be able to clean in areas where space is confined, and a wide or particularly long-handled broom would get in the way rather than helping. If that is your situation, then look for a millet broom that has been specifically designed for use in tents or caravans. Alternatively, you could choose a whisk millet broom which is perfect for reaching into those awkward nooks and crannies found in every home.
How are millet brooms made? One of the best features of millet broom is that they are an almost 100% natural product. The brush is made of millet which is grown in Australia and then harvested by hand since the millet stalks are too tall for mechanical harvesting. Once the heads of the millet are removed, the stalks are left to dry before being graded. When it is time to make the broom, the millet is attached to the broom handle with wire and sewn with a stitching machine.
The final stage is the trimming of the brush which makes the broom ready for sale.
