Bamboo in the UK

By all accounts bamboo was first introduced to the UK in the 1800’s when voyages were being made to bring back exotic species from China and Japan.

It is actually not currently classified as “Invasive” under the Wildlife and Countryside Act in the same way that Japanese Knotweed is for example but it’s quick spreading and resilient nature can cause significant problems in areas of unchecked infestation.

Problems With Bamboo

Bamboo was originally imported because of it’s good looking and sturdy nature, able to survive in many different environments and it is this resilience alongside it’s invasive and quick spreading root structure that can make it problematic if not kept in check.

If not managed properly bamboo ( similar to japanese knotweed ) it’s rhizomes can spread far beyond the initial planting area causing damage to surrounding properties and structures and even disrupting local eco systems and plant species.

Bamboo Removal 

Like most invasive weed treatments, bamboo removal methods can vary depending on the size and spread of the infestation

Common removal methods include :

Manual Removal – Digging up the bamboo and root structure.

Mechanical Excavation – For larger infestations.

Rhizome Barrier  – Inserted around the root structure to ensure it stays within its boundaries.

Chemical Treatments  – As with many invasive weeds a targeted herbicide can be used.

*Note: With any bamboo removal method it is important to monitor the infested area for signs of any re-growth as new plants can form if even the smallest fragment of rhizome is left behind.*
