Why ivy is a problem in Yeovil
On Yeovil properties, ivy adventitious roots work into mortar, render and roof verges, and heavy growth adds wind load to walls, fences and mature trees. Yeovil's growth around its former glove-making and aviation industries left disturbed brownfield sites, and the River Yeo's banks running through the town continue to provide knotweed with damp, disturbed ground.
