[treesnakey]

Ive not been in this game long. I want to open up another service for the business. Ive got my spraying tickets. I want to learn more about the plants and best ways to treat them.

 

Can anyone recommend any reading/ webistes to broarden my knowledge?

Environment Agency and DEFRA have some good info on Japanese Knotweed etc.

In relation to Japanese Knotweed I'd recommend: -

 

RICS Professional Information - Japanese Knotweed and residential property,

 

and

 

The Japanese Knotweed Manual: The Management and Control of an Invasive Alien Weed (Fallopia japonica) [Paperback]

Lois Elizabeth Child (Author), Paul Maxwell Wade (Author)

 

Then there is all the burb on the internet from varies environmental agencies and forum (like Quercus) also Monsanto do quite a bit of research info on treatment techniques.

 

There is also a certified course from SLIC training
