How Is Japanese Knotweed Treated in Scotland?
Every job starts with a site survey to map the infestation. Stem injection places a glyphosate-based herbicide directly into each cane so it reaches the rhizome, and foliar spraying covers larger stands. Treatment runs across one to three growing seasons with monitoring visits included, and excavation is kept for development sites that cannot wait.
What Are the Rules on Knotweed in Scotland?
In Scotland, Japanese knotweed is covered by the Wildlife and Natural Environment (Scotland) Act 2011, which makes it an offence to plant the species or otherwise cause it to grow in the wild. Cut material is controlled waste under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and must go to a licensed site. SEPA is the regulator, and Scottish councils can serve Species Control Orders on landowners who fail to deal with an infestation.
