The Fertilizer Shovel is unique shovel which is added to Fallout 3 with the Point Lookout add-on.

It can be repaired with shovels.

[edit] Obtaining

You can get it from the Tribal Croatoa (keeper of the punga fruits at Ark & Dove Cathedral), with the Child at Heart perk, or by passing a speech check after asking about his 'secrets'. You may also kill him and retrieve it from his body, but this method is not recommended unless you have already completed both the Walking with Spirits and Hearing Voices quests. It does -4 HP for 10 seconds on strike, likely due to the Fertilizer it was used with.

[edit] Glitch

It is possible to get two of these by first passing the speech check, then gaining the Child at Heart perk and using it.

[edit] Notes

The shovel has one of the longest reaches of any melee weapon in the game, making it effective for fending off large groups of enemies.

[edit] Appearances

The Fertilizer Shovel appears in the Fallout 3 add-on Point Lookout.
