Why bracken is a problem in Wisbech
On Wisbech properties, bracken spreading rhizome dominates hillsides, woodland edges and pasture, and the fronds are toxic to livestock. Wisbech's location on the River Nene amid the drained Fens has left extensive dyke networks and old wharf sites where knotweed spreads easily, aided by the town's long history of river-based trade and industry.
