People in Scotland have been issued an urgent warning over giant hogweed as kids break up for the summer holidays.
This comes as giant hogweed is spreading rapidly around Scotland and in Glasgow. Experts are warning of the serious dangers it possesses as more people will be venturing outside.
With warm weather and no school, many will be out and about and NatureScot and Care of Burns in Scotland Managed Clinical Network (COBIS) are urging people to become familiar with what it looks like as the plant can cause serious burns. Every year children, gardeners, walkers and animals are hurt by giant hogweed.
