We have Japanese Knotweed and so does much of New England. What are we supposed to do? As new property owners we are figuring this out as we go, but for now we are actively trying to control it before it gets even more out of hand.

July 23: Can you pull it up by the roots?
July 23: I tried to pull some young fledgling knotweeds out along the path to the brook. I flagged the ones I pulled with one of three color flags depending on how well I thought I had pulled it out. yellow for ones I thought I had gotten nearly all of. red for ones that I knew had broken off. orange for questionable ones. Update: a month later they are almost all growing back. yikes.
