Why bracken is a problem in Clacton-on-Sea
On Clacton-on-Sea properties, bracken spreading rhizome dominates hillsides, woodland edges and pasture, and the fronds are toxic to livestock. Around the pier and the seafront, Clacton-on-Sea's mix of gardens, riverbanks, railway corridors and development plots gives invasive and persistent weeds plenty of disturbed ground to colonise, and infestations regularly cross property boundaries across Essex.
