Firstly, it is essential that any areas contaminated with this knotweed are marked out. These areas needing Japanese knotweed removal or Japanese knotweed eradication should be disturbed as little as possible, and a buffer around the invasive weed marked out to take account of the extensive roots and make sure they are all removed later when the removal process start.
All site operatives should be made aware of the requirements of this kind of weed and their responsibilities not to spread it over.

It is essential to treat all below ground growth for complete eradication, as the rhizome (root)of the weed can easily grow afterward to form new plants again from just one little gramme of material and these tiny pieces of Japanese knotweed material can remain dormant for some time. Getting the right eradication strategy is vital for efficient and cost effective Japanese knotweed removal, and can be very different depending on the site requirements and the client’s needs. Thus choosing the right company is vitally important to get a professional, expert and bespoke eradication service to destroy every piece of this knotweed on a site.
