Japanese Knotweed originates from Japan (hence the name). It arrived in the UK in the Victorian era when a sample of the plant was bought back. However, at the time it’s invasive properties were unknown. As in its natural habitat the knotweed was controlled by natural pests and climate conditions. However, in the UK the plant was found to grow quickly, and by the mid-1800s, was extremely popular.
Unfortunately, today if Japanese Knotweed is found growing on your land and encroaching on to neighbouring properties, it is then classed as a private nuisance. Therefore, leaving you open to court action. If you find Japanese Knotweed in Preston it is important that you deal with it straight away.
