Removal Of Japanese Knotweed In Bilston

The Victorians brought Japanese Knotweed over from Far East Asia as an ornamental plant. It was widely populated throughout the UK and used along railway embankments. However, it’s invasive nature soon became apparent. Because it has no natural predators in the UK, there is nothing to hinder its growth. However, over the last few years the insects native to Japan that help control Japanese Knotweed have been successfully released into the country.

Although, this remediation method has been implemented, more is required to ensure the threat of Japanese Knotweed is eradicated. Because of its rapid growth and strong root system, which can grow through walls, concrete and break drains a more hostile and man-made approach is required.
