Why stinging nettles is a problem in Redruth
On Redruth properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Redruth's mining legacy, part of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site, left disturbed spoil heaps and old tramway cuttings where knotweed has spread extensively.
