Japanese Knotweed removal by the specialists.
Japanese Knotweed is a robust perennial plant which grows rigorously with the potential to spread rapidly, growing up to 2-3m in one growing season. It has an underground rhizome system consisting of stems/roots that can stretch horizontally up to 7 meters and it can grow almost anywhere as it can tolerate extreme conditions such as low temperatures, acidic soils and waterlogged/saline environments.

It grows rigorously and spreads rapidly – up to 2m in one season. Its underground root systems can stretch for 7m. It can grow through cracks in asphalt, walls and into drains.
Leave it to the experts
Do not attempt to remove or cut Japanese Knotweed yourself. This can lead to the Knotweed to spread and leave everlasting damage to your property and surrounding areas.

Japanese Knotweed Pro Tips by Plantscapes Eireann.
Japanese Knotweed can damage foundations and structures which ultimately leads to a reduction in value of land and structures.
This aggressive plant creates its own monoculture by pushing out native species and reducing localised biodiversity, and as such the treatment of it should be approached very carefully.
Pro-Tip: Don't try to dig up
Don’t try to dig up Japanese Knotweed as this will lead to a significant increase in stem density. Even a small fragment of rhizome is capable of regeneration.
Pro-Tip: Don't Move Soil
Don’t spread or move soil that is contaminated with Japanese Knotweed. Any soil that is within 7m of a Japanese Knotweed plant could contain rhizomes.
