Thanks for this report of knotweed! We really appreciate and value your eyes on the ground alerting us to new knotweed infestations. I have forwarded this report to the Douglas Co Weed Control program. They may not be able to prioritize it for a rapid response, but the report is nonetheless extremely valuable as it helps managers make strategic decisions about where it is important to focus efforts. Thanks so much for taking the time to report. Please do keep on reporting!
Sincerely,
Tania
