What do you do with noxious weeds like giant hogweed (Heracleum mantegazzianum)?
Stay the fuck away from those. Phototoxic weeds are no joke.
In all seriousness, there's a list of plants EU nations are supposed to weed. I think they do as much as they can for plants like Giant Hogweed (mostly because they tend to hurt children and people who don't know about their properties)
In the case of Japanese Knotweed, they have basically given up, so it just flourishes everywhere.
Where I live (Ontario Canada) we are overwhelmed with invasive Phragmites. Although they’re edible and can be used as livestock fodder they still dominate our waterways. We don’t really have any farmers raising water buffalo which would be an ideal herd for grazing them down.
Got it. Canada needs a feral water buffalo population.
