Why running bamboo is a problem in Bridgend
On Bridgend properties, running bamboo running rhizome crosses boundaries, lifts patios and can enter cavity walls and drains — increasingly the subject of neighbour disputes. Bridgend's location on the River Ogmore, with disturbed banks and former industrial sites near the old Bridgend Ordnance Factory, has provided knotweed with well-established colonies throughout the town.
