Why giant hogweed is a problem in Cwm
On Cwm properties, giant hogweed sap causes severe phototoxic burns and long-term light sensitivity, which makes it a genuine safety issue on footpaths, riverbanks and school boundaries. Cwm is a former mining village in the Ebbw Fawr valley between Ebbw Vale and Aberbeeg in Blaenau Gwent.
