    Why New Zealand pigmyweed is a problem in Peterborough

    On Peterborough properties, New Zealand pigmyweed tiny fragments regrow into dense mats on pond margins and damp ground, and it spreads on footwear, tyres and machinery. Peterborough's extensive river frontage on the Nene, together with former brickworks pits at Fletton and Whittlesey now used for gravel extraction, have created widespread wetland knotweed habitat across the city's edges.
