The most common treatment method is herbicide treatment. This treatment is the least costly, although it can take a minimum of 3 years to complete. The actual spraying or injection of the herbicide will take place in the first year over one full growing season. Following the last treatment, when all the Japanese Knotweed is eradicated, a two-year inspection process will begin. Once a full two years of inspections have been carried out, and no Japanese knotweed is present, the site can be declared free of Japanese Knotweed.
Although herbicide treatment is commonly used the other methods of treatment are just as effective in Japanese Knotweed eradication.
