Why goosegrass (cleavers) is a problem in Navan
On Navan properties, goosegrass (cleavers) scrambles rapidly over hedges and borders, smothering new planting and seeding heavily within a single season. In Navan, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Boyne and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around River Blackwater and Athlumney Castle, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Johnstown and Kells, are where we most often find established stands.
