Working on Japanese Knotweed removal for businesses is a very common occurrence for us. Although the excavation of Japanese Knotweed is not the most cost effective way of dealing with the outbreak, it can sometimes be necessary if building work has to be carried out quickly. Often, due to the high cost of land and various time constraints, it is more cost effective to remove the Japanese Knotweed directly from the ground through excavation rather than treating it though herbicides and waiting for the land to be declared free of Japanese knotweed.
