Frequently Asked Questions
How much lawn area can the Scotts Wizz cover in a single fill?
When the hopper is full, the Scotts Wizz covers up to 2,500 sq. ft. That's plenty of product for most small lawns without a mid-yard refill.
Can I use the Wizz for winter ice melt or grass seed?
Yes. The Wizz handles both. It's built to be your go-to spreader all year. Feed your lawn in spring, summer and fall; use it to spread grass seed; and switch to ice melt when winter hits.
How is the Scotts Wizz handheld spreader powered?
The Wizz runs on 4 AA batteries which are included. No cranking, and no separate trip to buy batteries before you can use it. Just pull the trigger and it delivers a consistent, even spread as you walk.
Does the Scotts Wizz feature EdgeGuard technology?
Yes. Flip the EdgeGuard lever and it blocks the right side of the spread pattern, so product stays on your lawn and off your driveway, sidewalks, landscaping and flowerbeds—giving you total control along the edge of your lawn.
How do I clean my Wizz Spreader?
It's easy. Just empty any leftover product back into the bag, then gently rinse out the hopper with a hose and allow it to dry. To protect the motor, don't ever submerge the spreader in water.
How do I know what spreader setting to use on my Wizz spreader?
You can find the correct spreader setting on the back of every bag of Scotts product or you can use our Spreader Settings Lookup Tool.
What is the warranty on the Scotts Wizz spreader?
