Why couch grass is a problem in Fort William
On Fort William properties, couch grass sharp white rhizomes run through borders, lawns and vegetable plots, regrowing from every broken fragment. Fort William sits in Highland, where river corridors, railway embankments and post-industrial ground give invasive weeds like Japanese knotweed plenty of disturbed soil to colonise. Older housing with long gardens and vacant plots around the town see regular outbreaks, and infestations commonly spread along watercourses and disused rail lines into neighbouring streets.
