Unwanted plants growing and hanging at my backyard shed
Reported via mobile in the Shrubs and Hedge category anonymously at 19:56, Sat 1 June 2024
Sent to London Borough of Bexley less than a minute later. Report ref: 6049039.
I am writing to express my concern about the excessive growth of unwanted plants at the rear of my property, specifically behind my shed located at 11A Parsonage Manorway DA17 6LN.
It is encroaching upon my shed and causing damage to the structure. The roots are growing into the shed's foundation and weakening the structure. This situation poses a serious safety risk and is causing significant damage to my garden shed.
I have attempted to control the same myself, but the problem persists. The plants are growing rapidly and are difficult to remove due to their size and location.
I would be grateful if you could investigate this matter and take appropriate action to address the issue. I believe that a professional weed control service may be necessary to effectively eradicate the plants and prevent further damage to my shed.
