Knotweed in Kirkby
Around the town centre and the industrial estate, Kirkby's mix of gardens, riverbanks, railway corridors and development plots gives invasive and persistent weeds plenty of disturbed ground to colonise, and infestations regularly cross property boundaries across Merseyside.
Kirkby sits within our Merseyside coverage, where the main local pressure is dockland, canal towpaths and dense terraced housing.
