Japanese knotweed treatment

Japanese Knotweed treatment relies on treating the foliage and stems growing out of the soil and the extensive root system that grows under the soil. Due to the plant's aggressive nature and how quickly it grows, it can often take several years to control the infestation. Put simply, the sooner you identify Japanese knotweed , the sooner you should invest in Japanese knotweed treatment.

Japanese knotweed treatment solution

The use of our herbicide is often the most efficient and cost effective option for the treatment and control of Japanese Knotweed. Using our "three way Japanese knotweed treatment system", it allows the herbicide to reach both the tall Japanese knotweed foliage and the root system that can grow up to 7m from the crown of the plant. There are firstly however, issues that require consideration.

The main issue is whether or not the Japanese knotweed infestation is near a water source. If this is the case, other non residual treatment options can be applied. Non residual treatment options however, typically require an additional 3 to 5 applications before becoming effective.
