We have a 100% success rate in remediating Japanese Knotweed. Japanese Knotweed Expert have worked with a number of housing associations in the eradication of Japanese Knotweed. These are the most common management strategies that we provide to reduce the impact of Japanese Knotweed on social housing:
1. Herbicide Treatment – This is the most common and preferred treatment for Japanese Knotweed. We treat the invasive weed by spraying and/or injecting it with a systemic translocating herbicide which is significantly stronger than herbicides available to the public. This will be applied as per your treatment plan with multiple applications over several seasons.
2. Excavation – This is usually carried out in the event that there is not enough time to treat with herbicide treatments. We excavate the Japanese Knotweed and remove the affected soil, ensuring the complete elimination.
Both of these methods will lead to a successful treatment and thus removal of Japanese Knotweed from housing developments.
