How to Eradicate Japanese Knotweed?

Britain is in the midst of an invasion by the dreaded Japanese knotweed. Originating in Japan’s volcanic wastelands, the invasive weed has struck fear among many home and land owners across the country. What makes Japanese knotweed so much of a problem is its huge root systems, which are capable of burrowing up to 3 metres deep into the ground and spreading rapidly if even the smallest piece is discarded in the soil. Japanese knotweed can grow up to 4 metres high and its bamboo-like stems have the ability to sprout up to 10cm in a single day during summer. Many worried property owners have been in search of a solution to completely eradicate the weed, which continues to spread like wildfire.

Impacts of Japanese knotweed

As well as sucking the life from vegetation in the surrounding area, Japanese knotweed is capable of damaging building foundations and pavements by invading any weak spots in concrete and tarmac just to access light and water. It does not let anything stop its growth, and if you attempt to chop it away yourself, it’s likely to return in even greater force, unless it’s dealt with properly by an expert.
