Why ragwort is a problem in Bandon
On Bandon properties, ragwort poisonous to horses and cattle, and liver damage accumulates whether the plant is grazed fresh or baled into hay. In Bandon, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Bandon River and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Kilbrittain coast and Innishannon woods, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Innishannon and Kinsale, are where we most often find established stands.
