Do you have bamboo in your garden? What about your neighbour? If there’s bamboo anywhere near your property, you have a right to be worried. After all, knowing what to do if you have invasive bamboo is key to keeping your home in ship-shape.
Most homeowners immediately think of Japanese knotweed when talking about invasive plant species. And while this nuisance plant is certainly something to be wary of, experts are urging homeowners to wake up to the realities of bamboo. Sure, it may look exotic and serve as an efficient garden screening plant, but invasive bamboo can potentially cost you hundreds of thousands of pounds in damages.
