Removal From Waterways

🌊 Japanese Knotweed Removal for Waterways in Cork

Japanese Knotweed is a major threat to rivers, canals, and waterways across Cork, where its rapid growth weakens banks, blocks drainage, and disrupts natural ecosystems. At Japanese Knotweed Cork, we specialise in safe, environmentally responsible Knotweed removal for waterways and riparian zones, helping to protect Ireland's vital water environments.

💧 The Risk of Knotweed Near Water

When growing near water, Japanese Knotweed spreads easily through soil erosion and water movement, allowing fragments of rhizome to travel downstream and create new infestations. This not only damages riverbanks and flood defences, but also threatens wildlife habitats and increases maintenance costs for councils and contractors.

Our expert team provides fully compliant, eco-friendly solutions to manage and remove Knotweed without harming aquatic life or water quality.

🌿 Our Waterway Knotweed Services Include

• Comprehensive Site Surveys - Identifying affected areas along rivers, canals, and drainage systems.
• Targeted Herbicide Treatments - Using approved aquatic-safe herbicides under strict environmental controls.
• Manual or Mechanical Removal - Where access allows, we safely excavate contaminated soil and rhizomes.
• Erosion Control & Restoration - Stabilising banks and restoring native vegetation post-removal.
• Monitoring & Aftercare - Long-term management to prevent regrowth and reinfestation.
