Why stinging nettles is a problem in Truro
On Truro properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Truro's tidal river confluence and former tin-related quays along the Truro River have left disturbed silty banks where knotweed spreads through old rail sidings near the cathedral city's industrial edges.
