As part of the Preliminary Ecological Appraisal survey, we can highlight the presence of non-native, invasive species.
The control of Non-Native Invasive Species in the UK is estimated to be £1.8 billion annually. These invaders can have a significant impact on people, wildlife and the environment through posing risks to human health, out-competing native species and destruction of habitat (including man-made habitats with materials such as concrete and tarmac).
JCA have teamed up with one of the market leaders in Invasive Weed Eradication to offer a state-of-the-art Japanese Knotweed eradication service. Our partner provides science based environmentally friendly conservation solutions for the construction industry.
