Herbicide Treatment Programmes
Chemical treatment using professional-grade glyphosate-based herbicides represents the most cost-effective and environmentally responsible approach to Japanese knotweed eradication. Our licensed technicians apply targeted treatments that systematically eliminate the entire rhizome system.
Treatment Process:
Foliar spray applications during active growth periods
Stem injection for targeted treatment in sensitive areas
Multiple applications over 2-5 growing seasons
Regular monitoring and progress documentation
Environmentally responsible application methods
Safe for surrounding plants and wildlife when applied correctly
Herbicide programmes typically cost £1,500-£5,000 depending on infestation size and location.
