Why ivy is a problem in Hawick
On Hawick properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Hawick sits in Scottish Borders, where river corridors, railway embankments and post-industrial ground give invasive weeds like Japanese knotweed plenty of disturbed soil to colonise. Older housing with long gardens and vacant plots around the town see regular outbreaks, and infestations commonly spread along watercourses and disused rail lines into neighbouring streets.
