Why ivy is a problem in Bodmin
On Bodmin properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Bodmin's historic gaol and former railway sidings along the Camel Trail have left disturbed embankments where knotweed spreads through the disused Bodmin and Wenford Railway corridor into the moor's fringes.
