Why running bamboo is a problem in Tiverton
On Tiverton properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Tiverton's wool trade heritage along the River Exe and Grand Western Canal has left disused mill sites where knotweed spreads through the canal towpath's disturbed banks and old lace factory grounds.
