Why stinging nettles is a problem in Rugeley
On Rugeley properties, stinging nettles colonise nutrient-rich and disturbed ground, making verges, play areas and yard margins unusable within a season. Rugeley's decommissioned power station site and former colliery ground beside the River Trent and Trent and Mersey Canal are classic disturbed brownfield habitats where Japanese knotweed has become well established.
