Why giant hogweed is a problem in Ogmore Vale
On Ogmore Vale 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. Ogmore Vale sits on the Ogmore river north of Bridgend, where old colliery sites and the riverside path spread knotweed.
