A LITTLE MORE ABOUT JAPANESE KNOTWEED
Perhaps a dead giveaway is that Japanese knotweed has its origins in Japan. The plant was originally introduced into Britain during the 19th century as an ornamental plant due to its pretty appearance.
Japanese Knotweed grows freely in Japan and Japan doesn’t suffer from the same affects that we do here in Great Britain. This is mainly due to the eco system there, where they have native bugs called the Aphalara Itadori that eat and control the growth of Japanese knotweed. In the UK, the Aphalara Itadori isn’t native and therefore we don’t have any form of natural control to stem or stop the growth of Japanese Knotweed.
Japanese Knotweed possesses a risk due to its highly invasive nature and its incredibly fast rate of growth. It grows through almost all structures including concrete. Once the shoots or stem has penetrated the concrete, its rate of growth then increases whilst it works its way further into the structure eventually forcing it apart often causing severe damage.
JAPANESE KNOTWEED AND THE LAW
Japanese Knotweed is also legally problematic.
Under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 it is an offence to plant or cause Knotweed to spread (so if you have Japanese Knotweed on your land and it spreads to a neighbour etc you can be held liable) and all waste such as any contaminated soil or cutting containing Japanese Knotweed falls under the control of part II of the environmental protection Act 1990.
Therefore by LAW, your waste must be properly disposed of with full compliance of the law because disposing of Japanese Knotweed incorrectly is actually an offense that can lead to prosecution.
This means that all waste containing Japanese Knotweed must be taken to a licensed premises where it will be properly disposed of. This is why many people opt to use our cost effective Japanese Knotweed removal service as all of these factors are included within our Japanese knotweed removal cost.
Japanese Knotweed is also considered problematic due to the legislation surrounding it. It is an offense to plant or cause Knotweed to spread in the wild and furthermore all waste (soil/cuttings) containing Japanese knotweed comes under the control of Part II of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and must be properly disposed off as it is actually classed as controlled waste.
We can help. We keep Japanese knotweed removal costs lower than any other Japanese knotweed removal company. We will eradicate your Japanese Knotweed problem.

HOW WE TACKLE THE PROBLEM
Japanese Knotweed grows fast and spreads easily and quickly. Once growth or an infestation has been discovered, it’s the responsibility of the owner of the land/property to contain it and stop it from spreading.
Damage is caused when it is left untouched and unharmed. It will continue to spread and grow, potentially costing home owners, landlords and land owners thousands of pounds.
When we begin our control and treatment services, we will have conducted an in-depth survey of the area. Within that survey we will list all the treatment options available and their associated removal costs.
To reduce the risk of it returning, we may even suggest a combination of treatment methods. We have a 100% success rate.
Some people have opted to tackle the weed on their own, however given the complicated nature of Knotweed, to completely control and eradicate, the specialist services of a professional are required. t will save you money, time and headache!
Tackling the weed yourself may also hinder you from selling your property. Even if you manage to sell your property and the weed returns when a future occupant has moved in, legally – you could be legally responsible.
