Why algae and lichen is a problem in Killarney
On Killarney properties, algae and lichen green film on paths, patios, render and signage that stains surfaces and makes them slippery through the winter. In Killarney, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Flesk and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Lough Leane and Killarney National Park, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Fossa and Muckross, are where we most often find established stands.
