HANK’S TOP 10 REASONS THE DUNGBEETLE IS THE KING OF POO SCOOPS
Look, I spend a lot of time watching my human clean up after me — so I’ve become somewhat of a connoisseur. And let me tell you, the DUNGBEETLE isn’t just a scoop… it’s a masterpiece. Here’s why I, Hank the Horse, officially approve:

10 features of The DUNGBEETLE pooper scooper:

1. Strong as a Clydesdale (this red one is 18 months old 👍)
2. Safer than a School Master
3. More colourful than a Jockey’s Jersey
4. Won’t Rust
5. Larger poo‑carrying capacity
6. Lightweight @1.8kg
7. No black on your hands
8. Sweep stows securely onto scoop
9. Slotted base for sifting
10. Australian Designed & Produced

If only my human worked as hard as this scoop, we’d have the paddock spotless by breakfast.

DUNGBEETLE Pooper Scooper – Cutting‑Up Time!

It’s been a big few days for Twiga in the workshop. First the components are cut apart from the molds — handle, sweeper, scooper — then the sifting holes are drilled in, ready for action.

This is where the DUNGBEETLE’s superior workmanship really shows.
Standard plastic poo scoops are mass‑produced using injection moulding: fast, cheap, and flimsy. The plastic isn’t strong in all directions, so it cracks, warps, and becomes brittle with age, sun, frost, and general paddock punishment.

DUNGBEETLES are built differently.
Each one is made using rotational moulding — a slower, hands‑on process that intertwines the polymer strands in every direction. Then the components of each mold cut by hand. The result? A scoop renowned for strength, durability, UV & frost tolerance, and resistance to cracking.

Built to last. Built for hard work. Built for horse people.
That’s the DUNGBEETLE way.

🐴 HANK HERE.
Before anyone starts tagging RSPCA because my human is jumping up and down on a purple DUNGBEETLE… relax. She’s not unwell. She’s demonstrating.

What you’re witnessing is a full‑body, high‑impact, kangaroo‑mode strength test of the mighty DUNGBEETLE Pooper Scooper.

And look at it go.
No cracks.
No buckling.
Not even a polite groan.

That’s because this thing is UV tough, frost tough, and basically uncrackable — built for years of paddock punishment… including whatever this exercise routine is.

Standard plastic poo scoops are mass‑produced with injection moulding. It’s fast and cheap, but it creates flimsy plastic that isn’t strong in all directions and becomes brittle with age and weather.

DUNGBEETLES are different.
They’re made using rotational moulding — a slower, more labour‑intensive process that intertwines the polymer strands, creating a material renowned for superior strength, durability, UV & frost tolerance, and resistance to cracking.
And the handles? Super‑strong anodised aluminium that won’t leave your hands black.

Anyway — carry on, human.
Show the world what I already know:
The DUNGBEETLE is the strongest, toughest, most colourful poo‑scooping beast in Australia.

Now… since you’re warmed up…
There’s a fresh pile over there with your name on it.

HAPPY EASTER FROM TEAM DUNGBEETLE!
Easter morning sunshine, ponies prancing in the light,
Hank drops chocolate eggs that aren’t quite egg‑shaped or polite.
But fear not, dear paddock—hope rolls in, bold and super,
For rising from the tack shed comes the DUNGBEETLE Pooper Scooper.
With holy sifts and sacred slots, it cleans the land once more—
A true Easter miracle… just minus the church décor.

I thought I’d share this very special testimonial before Christmas 🎅 wraps up and the New Year kicks off 🥂🍾, because it captures everything I love about our DUNGBEETLE horse Pooper Scooper creation. Thank you, Kathy Scanlon
💚💙🧡

“Hello!!
5 years of The Dungbeetle.
Countless ponies and horses poops picked, every morning and every single night, 365 days a year. Endless children's arguments quashed by those who use The DB and not forced to use a more inferior version. An unknown number of worm burdens not eventuated due to poo removal! 1 pony has had his pooped picked by our colourful friends from Day 1! Thank you for your awesome product! The colours get better and better!”
💚💙🧡
Five years of colour, chaos‑prevention, poo‑patrol pride, and the brightest scoops in the paddock. What a way to close out the year ⭐

🎉 What a weekend! Hank and I trotted off to the OTT Carnival Extravaganza at Boneo to celebrate the mighty Thoroughbred and their incredible second careers. Hank’s racing name was “Evastar”—which sounds fast, glamorous, and full of promise. In reality? Hank may be the slowest racehorse in the southern hemisphere (possibly the world). But now, as a retired racehorse turned dressage darling, Hank’s found his true calling. He strutted into Boneo and delivered his best-ever test—nailed all his simple changes and sparkled like a star. The springy surfaces may have helped, but Hank insists: We didn’t quite make the placings this time, but hey—there’s always next year”. Hank’s already planning his browband upgrades.

💩 Hank says: “Retired from racing, not from glory.”

💰 Huge cheers to the talented horses and riders who won those very generous $5300 OTT cheques—you were poetry in motion! And yes, some of that scoop-worthy wealth trotted straight to the DUNGBEETLE stand…

🍒 As the cherry on top, a whole herd of DUNGBEETLE Pooper Scoopers found loving new homes—some thanks to the freshly minted cheque-winners whose pockets were suddenly burning with scoop-worthy ambition. May your paddocks be clean and your horses proud.

👀 And there was plenty more to watch: athletic Showjumpers, elegant Show Hunters, and even a Fashions on the Field showdown and plenty of extra entertainment on the main arena. Hank was tempted to enter some other events, but said his sparkly browband already won “Best Accessory.”

🎟️ Word’s probably out about how fun this event was. Top tip: next year might require AFL Grand Final-level ticket tactics. I’ll be camped out on the Boneo website with snacks, a stopwatch, and Hank supervising from his throne.
