Invasive Weeds Agency

After a lengthy break from podcasting, we're back! This episode of the IWA Invasive Species Podcast features Jed and I (Graham) sitting down to cups of tea in front of a log fire to chat about Japanese knotweed and how to identify this invasive weed in winter. We also discuss the impact Japanese knotweed can have on property and land values. Be wary of buying land in winter as Japanese knotweed may not have been identified since it looks quite different at this time of year compared to the dense, green stands present in summer.
