A noxious weed is an invasive weed that has been designated by the agricultural authority as one that is hazardous to natural habitats, humans, or livestock. At Agility Trees, we offer weed clearing and noxious weed clearing to allow for the establishment of natural vegetation. Our arborists are experts in the identification and management of all noxious weed species and can be consulted for the management and elimination of any weeds that pose a risk to the natural environment.
A noxious weed is defined as an invasive weed with prolific seeding. These weeds can disrupt the natural environment for both plants and animals. In some cases, when birds eat the seeds from noxious weeds, the birds can die very quickly. In some cases, these weeds can cause certain trees to shed their limbs. For more information on noxious weeds and specific species please visit your local city council’s website. In New South Wales, more information including a noxious weed database can be found at weeds.dpi.nsw.gov.au
It is important for noxious weeds to be managed by a professional, because they are trained and able to identify the weed species. It is also important to work with a professional that knows how to handle and remove noxious weeds safely. At Agility, our experts know when to remove trees, and how to manage the waste of noxious weeds. When noxious weeds are removed, the waste needs to be taken to a specialty place for proper compost.
Depending on the area in which you live, you may or may not have certain obligations to remove noxious weeds on your property. Some councils in the Sydney area will write a property owner a letter stating at they have noxious weeds on their property. This letter will also state that these weeds need to be removed. In most cases, if you are not a trained tree professional, you are not obligated to know whether or not you have noxious weeds on your property.
It is important that if you identify noxious weeds on your property that you do not let them spread. Prolific seeding can have severe results. If you are aware of noxious weeds on your property, cut them out or poison them. Make sure to put all noxious weed waste in your green bin.
