Why Is Japanese Knotweed So Common in the North West?

The Bridgewater, Leeds and Liverpool and Rochdale canals, the Mersey and Irwell corridors and a century of railway cuttings gave the plant its spreading routes. Manchester and Liverpool consistently rank among the worst-affected cities in the UK, and the wet climate keeps stands growing later into the autumn than in the south.

How Does Japanese Knotweed Removal Work in the North West?

Every job starts with a site survey to map the infestation. Stem injection places a glyphosate-based herbicide directly into each cane so it reaches the rhizome, and foliar spraying covers larger stands. Treatment runs across one to three growing seasons with monitoring visits included, and we work to Property Care Association standards and Environment Agency guidance throughout.

What Are the Rules on Knotweed in the North West?

English law applies across the North West: the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 makes it an offence to cause knotweed to spread in the wild, and the Environmental Protection Act 1990 classes cut material as controlled waste that must go to a licensed site. The Environment Agency is the regulator.
