Ormskirk Weed Control

Weeds are fast growing vegetation which will grow naturally in many areas and can spread very rapidly if left unchecked. Weeds will affect gardens and will quickly turn a well-tended garden into a mess. There are numerous varieties of weeds in the United Kingdom and while many are beneficial in small amounts, many others will quickly become problematic. Species like Japanese knotweed and brambles can quickly overwhelm the plants already present in a garden. It’s critical to keep any weeds in your garden under control as in serious instances they could cause structural problems to the building if they’re allowed to grow unchecked near 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 under control and prevent it from spreading. If you have Japanese knotweed on your property and the local authority deems it to substantially affect the appearance of the local area then they can force you to manage it.

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