Are You Aware of The Reality About Japanese Knotweed In March?
Knotweed is an invasive species that can severely damage your property, which is why it is essential that you contact us for a free survey. We identify the severity of your problem and propose a cost effective plan to eliminate knotweed completely.
If a commercial land or property owner discovers Japanese Knotweed on his or her property, that individual will likely have to wait until the invasive plant is removed before he or she can proceed with any new construction.
Here's how Japanese Knotweed can affect your life
- Japanese knotweed can grow through asphalt and concrete, which poses a threat to your building or property.
- Mortgage lenders often refuse to lend against a building in which Japanese Knotweed is found.
- Knotweed grows out of control, blocking both visibility and access to paths, highways and other infrastructure—especially for commercial properties.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT JAPANESE KNOTWEED REMOVAL March
As Japanese Knotweed infestations vary widely from property to property, it’s unsurprising that treatment and control will too. It may be necessary to use one treatment method or the combination of different techniques for eradicating Knotweed.
We survey your knotweed problem and use the most effective methods for each growth stage, which allows us to deliver high-quality results that will produce a long-term solution. Our methods go beyond chemical treatments to identify root problems and prevent any future occurrences.
— JAPANESE KNOTWEED REMOVAL OPTIONS AVAILABLE IN March
FOLIAR SPRAYING *
Most common treatment. The spraying of powerful chemicals with a knapsack. We ensure that other plants aren’t damaged. The most effective time for foliar spraying to Japanese Knotweed is in Spring.
FOLIAR LEAF WIPING *
With this treatment for Japanese knotweed, we use a tool to “physically wipe” our chemicals onto the plant’s leaves. Because of the accuracy of this application, we frequently allow a higher chemical concentration.
STEM INJECTION
We inject a small amount of herbicide straight into the invasive weed. Because it is injected directly into the Japanese Knotweed, this is the most devious way of elimination. It isn’t affected by the weather.
BIOMASS REDUCTION
Biomass is a form of excavation and removal but instead of extracting all of the soil impacted by Japanese Knotweed, we only remove the infested parts of the soil. It’s an excellent Japanese Knotweed control method that allows the reuse of the soil. Reducing the use of landfill.
CROWN REMOVAL
Crown and stems are capable of regeneration, and even minute fragments of clipped crown or stem are capable of regeneration and producing a new invasive weed — eliminating these components is a wonderful technique.

SOIL SCREENING
A tried-and-true strategy utilised on hundreds of sites across the United Kingdom.
Using screening, the rhizome material of Japanese knotweed is removed from the soil material. The Japanese knotweed material is then either transferred to a licenced landfill at a significantly reduced disposal rate or burnt on-site with an Environment Agency or Natural Resources Wales D6 exemption.
The cleansed soils can then be reused elsewhere, typically in soft landscaping areas where they will not interfere with construction.
This can greatly minimise landfill and backfill expenses and assist lower the site’s carbon footprint by reducing the number of vehicle trips to the dump.
BIOSECURITY SUPERVISION
Knotweed Services can provide a biosecurity operative to supervise any excavations and movement of soils containing Japanese knotweed on site.
As part of these measures, we can provide a biosecurity boot wash and machine-washing area installed in an area at the entrance to the site.
We will provide all toolbox talks for the main contractor on site, which will be signed by all contractors involved in the operation on site.
We can provide temporary geotextile barriers if required in areas to maintain the biosecurity on site.
Once the works have been completed, we will provide the client with a full biosecurity report.
This method can be used in conjunction with other treatment methods on site.
EXCAVATION AND DISPOSAL
This treatment method is ideal where time constraints are present and there’s no other option other than to remove both the Japanese Knotweed and contaminated soil to a registered landfill.
By removing all traces of the infestation quickly, this offers a rapid solution to your problem and allows your commercial project to begin groundwork’s almost straight away. When time is of the essence, there is no quicker Japanese Knotweed removal/treatment method.
Any waste taken off-site will be done so with a licensed waste carrier to a suitably authorised landfill site.
CELL BURIAL
Cell burial comprises of moving Knotweed contaminated soil from one location on site, burying it in an excavated pit which is lined with a root barrier membrane, in a different position on the site.
The burial requirements for Japanese Knotweed are as follows:
- The Environment Agency recommends that the top of the burial cell should be a minimum of 2 metres below ground level.
- The overall depth of the burial pit should be in excess of 5 metres deep. All root barrier seams are welded together forming an encapsulated cell from which the Japanese Knotweed cannot escape. Clean soil is then used to backfill on top of the cell.
- To prevent accidental disturbance of the burial site, it is recorded on all site plans and future land owners should be made aware of the location.
STOCKPILE & TREAT
Bunding is the method of relocating contaminated Japanese Knotweed soil to a different area of the site being treated. A bund is a shallow area of the contaminated soil, typically 0.5m deep.
The purpose of the bund is to move the Japanese Knotweed to an area of the site that is not used. This ‘buys time’ for treatment that would not be possible where the Japanese Knotweed was originally located.
To make the surface flush with the surroundings, the bund can either be lifted, placed on top of the land, or positioned inside an excavation.
For the surface of the bund to be flush with the surroundings, it can be raised, placed on top of the ground, or positioned inside an excavation.
HERBICIDE APPLICATION
At Knotweed Services we can provide the client with bespoke treatment plans depending on the locations of the Japanese knotweed.
These plans can work in conjunction with other methods of treatment where access is limited to pedestrian movements i.e., embankments or existing pathways within a site.
This will normally consist of up to 3 visits per annum to apply herbicide by either foliar spray technique or stem injection during the growing season over a period of 3 years, with a monitoring period of 2 years thereafter.
We would select the appropriate herbicides depending on the surrounding foliage or environmental constraints.
After each visit a full treatment record would be provided with photos showing the progress of the works and then an annual report.
