    Why stinging nettles is a problem in Bootle

    On Bootle properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Bootle's dense dockland heritage along the Mersey and the Leeds and Liverpool Canal has left derelict warehouse land and rail sidings that provide ideal disturbed conditions for knotweed to establish.
