Congleton Weed Control

Weeds are fast growing plants that may grow naturally in many areas and can spread very rapidly if left unchecked. Weeds will affect gardens and will easily change a well-tended garden into a mess. There are numerous varieties of weeds in the UK and while many are beneficial in small numbers, many others will easily become problematic. Varieties like Japanese knotweed and brambles can quickly overwhelm the plants already present in a garden. It is important to keep any weeds in your garden under control as in serious cases they could cause structural problems to the building if they’re permitted to grow unchecked close to the house.

Some kinds of weeds such as Japanese knotweed have legal requirements that cover them as they are non-native invasive species. It isn’t illegal to have Japanese knotweed in your garden but you are obliged by law to keep it in order and stop it from spreading. If you have Japanese knotweed in your garden and the local authority deems it to significantly affect the character of the local area then they can force you to control it.

Experienced weed control companies can accurately identify the types of weed which is causing an issue in your garden. They can then perform an effective treatment plan which may require using chemical or organic herbicides along with installing preventative measures such as weed control fabric or mulch. The simplest way to keep weeds in check is to keep a well-maintained garden and to get rid of any weeds as soon as you can.
