More sightings of Himalayan balsam are reported around the island.
Sightings of Himalayan balsam have been reported in GuernseyOfficials said there had been sightings of Himalayan balsam around the island.
It said removing the plant in its early stages of growth was "critical" to prevent it affecting Guernsey's biodiversity.ACLMS said Himalayan balsam can "smother the land and outcompete native plant species" once it starts to grow. The plant has not returned to areas where it was removed previously, but new sightings elsewhere have been reported, the agency said."Without this intervention, the species could have become uncontrollable, leading to huge impacts on Guernsey's local wildlife and biodiversity as it smothers the land and outcompetes native plant species."
