Redruth Cornwall flail needed

[TimberCutterDartmoor]

This is like the old days - job adverts in Cornwall - "anyone north of Tamar need not apply"!

 

The last non local to step on Jack Harvey's patch - well you know what happened to them! Only a few raod planes and assoc. plant torched!!!

 

Aside from territory wars which btw I'm not taking seriously, travelling that far is crazy!!

i have regularly gone to plymouth , exeter , taunton and wiltshire to work , yes the jobs were all for clients of mine down here but im sure the local tree companies were not thinking that when i turned up .

YOu should be serious TCD- the cornish mafia will be on Brunels Bridge at the first whiff of foreign invasion:lol:

 

 

Seriously- this has NOTHING to do with 'turf wars' or ANYTHING like that. It is completely ridiculous that anybody has even sanctioned work being given to a contractor that will have to travel 400 odd miles in this day and age.

The best way to control jk is to spray it late autumn when it's storing it's energy. We stem inject it and it proves to give a better control rate than spraying.

 

Defra have plenty of info on jk and plenty of info on it. We've got a job where it's grown in one garden. Moved next door and is growing under a patio and has sprouted through the floor of a garden shed!! It's all got to be dug out.

The best way in cornwall is to ring the council JK team and get them out.

if you go to the cafe at tehidy woods there's a leaflet that tells you how to deal with it,, fairly sure that it suggest getting a tractor from norfolk to flail it to pieces...

That cafe is one of my favourite places ever! I just love Tehidy Woods; tis where my Dad grew up; next to the (now long gone) sawmill down Parklands drive. Beautiful beautiful peaceful place.

ok look guys I am working for a jap knotweed firm who only deal with this stuff so I am sure they know what they are talking about and I am quoting from the tender doc ( set out by another jap knot weed comapny the LA & defra. So thanks for your concern. I will not bother asking again.

As for the distance I cover the whole of the Uk and even go into france & spain.

Im sure we all stand corrected then:001_smile:, and certainly speaking for myself there was never any offence intended, but as I am sure you understand, flailing goes right in the face of everything we are told.
