Why field horsetail is a problem in Fishguard
On Fishguard properties, field horsetail deep rhizome network infests lawns, borders and paving, and it is toxic to horses on grazing land. Around Fishguard harbour and the lower town, Fishguard'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 South Wales.
