They’re really short.

I started up the weed whacker and did about 10 feet along the fence, then the foot guard fell off.

Ten minutes spent hunting for a nut and bolt the right size. Fixed it.

Did 5 more feet along the fence. Hit something and the string snapped and disappeared inside the string housing.

Eight mosquito bites.

In a few minutes I might just go out and fix the string thingy and try again. At this point though, I’m all in favor of a flame thrower. Just fry it all.
