A heatwave is on its way to the UK meaning people will be heading outside and spending more time in their gardens.
The keen gardeners among us will be particularly keen to keep their flower beds looking as colourful as possible while the sun is shining, but one thing that's important to look out is any intrusive plants growing among them. Intrusive plants such as Japanese Knotweed don’t always look unpleasant, which can make them even harder to identify as they spread throughout your garden, the Express reports.
It's important to keep these plants under control to prevent further damage to neighbouring properties or wildland. Although it is not usually illegal to grow these plants and weeds in your garden, some are heavily regulated in the UK, with fines dished out to anyone who fails to keep them under control.
