Japanese Knotweed Treatment

Dealing with Japanese Knotweed

Highly invasive and aggressive weeds such as Japanese knotweed need specialist knowledge from qualified professional contractors to control and manage them.

Japanese knotweed can have serious environmental and economic impacts. This plant is very aggressive and can devastate riparian systems, degrade native plant and wildlife habitat, and be a safety concern along roadways etc.

We use the safest solutions to tackle your knotweed problems. Whilst we are happy to assist you and answer any of your questions Business Link also has more information and useful advice to help you in tackling this problem. There are also more links below.

Why we need to control Japanese Knotweed:-

	Lenders will be reluctant to give mortgages or refuse your remortgage application where knotweed is present - Daily Mail
	Prevent developments or sale of land due to high costs of eradication - Bolton Surveyors.org
	It can damage paths and structures, causing trip hazards and repairs
	Causes obstruction and decreased visibility, deep roots clog and damage drains
	Create fire hazard - dead stems are extremely dry
	Harbour pests including rats and mice and other undesirables
	Prevent hazards to health and employee risks-see Business Link info
	Avoid legal implications e.g. law suits and claims for damages from adjoining landowners
