Do you need Japanese knotweed treatment?

You may need Japanese knotweed treatment if the plant is growing on private land, close to a boundary, affecting a property sale, delaying a mortgage, causing concern for a landlord or appearing on commercial or development land.

The right treatment option depends on the size of the growth, where it is located, how quickly the issue needs to be resolved and whether the property is being sold, rented, renovated or developed.

If you are not sure whether the plant is Japanese knotweed, it is best to start with an identification check or survey before deciding on treatment.

When treatment is usually needed

Japanese knotweed should be taken seriously when it is present on land you own, manage, are buying or are trying to sell.

Treatment may be needed when suspected knotweed is:

  • growing in a private garden
  • close to a house, wall, driveway, patio or outbuilding
  • spreading near a boundary or neighbouring property
  • affecting a property sale or mortgage
  • found on rental property
  • present on commercial or development land
  • likely to be disturbed by building, landscaping or groundworks

The most important thing is not to disturb the plant or move soil until you understand what it is and what treatment or management route may be suitable.
