Invasive Species Management

Japanese knotweed, Himalayan balsam, bamboo and rhododendron.

Invasive plants spread fast, crowd out native species and can damage buildings and land value. We identify them, plan control over the right number of seasons and dispose of the waste legally.

What we offer

Japanese knotweed

Knotweed can grow through gaps in paving and walls and can affect mortgages and property sales. We put a treatment plan in place and handle disposal as controlled waste.

Himalayan balsam

Balsam fires its seeds several metres and spreads along rivers and ditches. We pull or cut it before it sets seed, and come back until the seed bank runs out.

Bamboo management

Running bamboo spreads by underground rhizomes into neighbouring gardens. We dig it out and fit root barriers to stop it returning.

Rhododendron clearance

Rhododendron ponticum shades out woodland plants and can host tree diseases. We clear it and treat regrowth.

FAQs

Common questions

Is it illegal to have knotweed in my garden?

No, but it's an offence to let it spread into the wild, and waste must go to a licensed site. You should also tell buyers about it if you sell your home.
