Sprayed your marestail and it's back again? You're not alone.
Its roots can reach 2m down and it shrugs off standard weedkillers.
It needs bruised-stem application and repeat visits through the season.

Knotweed on its own isn't the deal-breaker. Knotweed with no plan is.
Lenders want to see a professional management plan and an insurance-backed guarantee. Ours is 10 years, RICS-compliant and transferable.

Myth vs fact
Myth: just dig it out yourself. Fact: leave a single fragment and it regrows.
And knotweed is controlled waste, so it needs licensed disposal. DIY digging often turns one stand into three.

Autumn = treatment season
Autumn is knotweed treatment season 🍂
The plant is pulling energy down into its rhizome for winter, and a well-timed treatment goes with it. Waiting for spring = losing a season.
