Knotweed in Letterkenny
In Letterkenny, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Swilly and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Lough Swilly and Glenveagh National Park, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Ramelton and Milford, are where we most often find established stands.
Letterkenny sits within our Donegal, Cavan & Monaghan coverage, where the main local pressure is lakeland drainage, border rivers and farmland verges.
