Japanese Knotweed- What is it?
Japanese Knotweed (Reynoutria Japonica) is an invasive weed that can cause damage to building structures by targeting weak points. This is why Japanese Knotweed is a real concern for home buyers and sellers.
All landowners are legally responsible for controlling and removing Japanese Knotweed from their property. This is in order to prevent its spread, regardless of whether this is a domestic homeowner or a commercial entity.
