INVASIVE Japanese knotweed near Redditch’s railway station could prove problematic if buildings there are bulldozed and the unwanted earth used as topsoil somewhere else, a resident has warned. He\u00a0said: ‘The presence of Japanese knotweed has led to the condemnation of houses and people being refused mortgages because of it…\u00a0<\/span>It needs specialist removal – if you leave even the smallest of roots it will start to spread again.’<\/p>\n

We absolutely concur! Specialist removal is paramount – even a piece of root as small as your finger nail can grow and spread into a new infestation. If you are n any way concerned, just contact us:<\/p>\n
