This case study shows the success of effectively managing Japanese knotweed at a residential property in Hedge End, Southampton. Our team of Japanese knotweed removal specialists attended to an infestation at a large residential property in Hedge End, using a stem injection method. This residential Japanese knotweed removal method involves injecting a fast-acting herbicide into the lower part of each Japanese knotweed stem. It was most appropriate due to the size of the infestation and is generally used in sensitive areas to eliminate potential damage to surrounding vegetation.
This Japanese knotweed control method can be employed in all weather conditions and can be applied to other hollow cane species.
The homeowners were extremely concerned about the rapid growth of the Japanese knotweed and wanted to ensure effective and professional removal before selling their property.
Our team initially conducted a Japanese knotweed site survey to evaluate the extent of the infestation and inform the homeowners of the risks posed to the neighbouring area if effective control and removal were not carried out. Based on the site survey, the team decided to implement the stem injection treatment, ensuring responsible and legal practices.
The control methods resulted in a successful outcome, allowing the homeowners to sell their property without worrying about further spread or damage to their property caused by the knotweed.
