Why running bamboo is a problem in St Neots
On St Neots properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. St Neots sits on the Great Ouse, and its old riverside wharves and gravel pits, now popular for leisure, provide ongoing knotweed habitat, particularly along the towpath leading towards the Priory Water lakes.
