Why field horsetail is a problem in Havant
On Havant properties, field horsetail deep rhizome network infests lawns, borders and paving, and it is toxic to horses on grazing land. Around the town centre and Langstone Harbour, Havant'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 Hampshire.
