Glad to see the photo has been chanaed and yes David it is a real problem. My company Knotweed Control Swansea Limited deals with it with Swansea being the knotweed capital of the UK due to the sheer biomass in the city. Mortgage lenders vary greatly in their approach to Japanese knotweed, dealing with them on an on a case by case basis. However generally they expect a specialist Japanese knotweed company (e.g. a member of the Property Care Association or Invasive Non-Native Specialists Association ) to undertake a report assessing the risks with a management plan & then depending on the risk level, sometimes require Insurance Back Guarantees (IBG) and in extreme cases, refuse to lend completely.

The first thing to do with regards to the control and treatment of invasive non native species is correct identification. It looks like the photo in the article is tree of heaven but it definitely ISN'T Japanese knotweed!
