    Why curly waterweed is a problem in Cookstown

    On Cookstown properties, curly waterweed submerged growth fills ponds, canals and fishing lakes, crowding out native aquatic plants and snagging boats. In Cookstown, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Ballinderry River and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Killymoon Castle and Lough Fea, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Moneymore and Stewartstown, are where we most often find established stands.
