Why bindweed is a problem in Guildford
On Guildford properties, bindweed twines through hedges, fences and shrubs, and the deep white root system regenerates from fragments left in the soil. Guildford's steep River Wey valley and the old Wey Navigation towpaths have provided disturbed, damp ground ideal for knotweed, with further spread along the Guildford-Waterloo railway cutting through the town.
