Giant Knotweed removal

Is this Knotweed a giant of a problem? Similarly Japanese Knotweed’s giant cousin can cause problems to properties. It has the same potential to cause damage and devalue land. How can you tell the difference? Firstly, it’s much taller and can grow to 4m. Also, the leaves are much larger, they tend to be rounder with ruffled edges and a slightly deeper green. The good news, because of the larger leaf size we have had great results with our Management Plans and herbicide treatments. Finally, root barriers, herbicide plans and excavations are also successful.

No, but here’s a great example of Japanese Knotweed exploiting weaknesses in a concrete driveway. Knotweed can push up through cracks, small holes and thinly spread concrete if not properly controlled. Left unchecked this plant has spread along a joining line of concrete driveway.

Japanese Knotweed doesn’t follow our British seasons. Like Knotweed Doctor’s Japanese Knotweed Removal Warrington office discovered on this site. As you can see from this picture fresh shoots have already started to sprout. When the temperature warms up the Knotweed plant sends up new shoots. It may be January, the heart of our winter season in the North West but the warmer temperatures in the city centre have triggered the tell-tale pinkish/purple buds of new knotweed growth.
