I shall certainly report a couple of local patches of knotweed. But what can be done about it?
3 years ago on the Scottish west coast estate where I spend most of my holidays a lot of money and effort was poured into trying to get rid of the Rhododendron ponticum. I can't remember which environmental department it was. They cut down great swathes of the stuff through the woodland on very steep and very rugged slopes. According to the estate owner, it was intended to get rid of it permanently. Fat chance! It is now growing healthily again. |
