Japanese knotweed... just how bad is it?
Japanese knotweed is a hardy bamboo-like perennial plant that grows quickly and strongly. It was introduced into the UK in the mid-19th century. It can have a negative effect on your home's value if left untreated. Knotweed has roots that seek out moisture and can cause damage.
