    Why stinging nettles is a problem in Dartford

    On Dartford properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Dartford's industrial river frontage on the Darent and Thames estuary, including old paper mill and cement works sites, has provided disturbed brownfield land where knotweed has become firmly established.
