Schedule 9 invasive plants<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Not just Japanese knotweed or giant hogweed – there are now over 40 species of plant on this list.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

It is an offence for any such plant material to leave site without a special licence and\/or to cause them to be transplanted into the wild.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Most ecologists don’t know how to identify all these plants, meaning they cannot do their job properly. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We advise on strategies for controlling these plants. We conduct the practical work in exceptional circumstances.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
