Environet, a Japanese knotweed removal company based in Send, warns local residents to look out for Japanese knotweed.

This plant, which lays dormant over the winter has remerged, thanks to the mild and wet winter.

House sellers should be aware that there is now a legal duty to declare if the property has had Japanese knotweed.
