he time has come to say a fond farewell to Bertie Seal, Director of Environet, who retired at the end of February after 27 years working alongside husband and co-founder Nic.
We’ve launched a new survey, JustCheck™ aimed at homebuyers and sellers who want more certainty on whether or not a property is affected by Japanese knotweed.
As knotweed continues to spread across the country, now affecting almost a million households, people are becoming better informed about how to identify knotweed, deal with it effectively and preserve property values when they come to sell.
It’s been a busy and memorable year here at Environet and as Christmas approaches, we look back on an exciting twelve months which saw us help more customers than ever before tackle their invasive plant problems.
The Japanese knotweed growing season has drawn to a close and the plant’s above-ground growth has now mostly died back. But despite looking dead, knotweed will be replenished with new energy reserves from the summer growth which are drawn down and stored in its powerful underground rhizome system, ready to re-emerge stronger next spring.
A couple buying a home in Saffron Walden, Essex, were faced with a ‘jungle’ of bamboo which had run riot in the front garden of the 3-bedroom detached house they viewed in April this year.
