We've now removed every plant of this invasive species that we can find from Gill Banks.
If you see any, could you let us know - 01229 480 347 - Here's what it looks like.
We're trying to avoid it blooming this year at all - in which case we should be rid of it.
Thanks
Note: You didn't realise the danger of Himalayan Balsam?
Well it's not the worse perhaps - Japanese Knotweed is far more difficult to remove and also very invasive.
There's plenty here on the Internet.
Start here!

We're revisiting the beck regularly.
Every time we go we find some we have still missed.
We had a great session yesterday morning, Friday, for two hours.
Then I had to revisit the beck to retrieve my bike that had been dunked by the kids last night. This meant I found about another 50 plants that we'd missed previously.
A small group of us are determinded to eradicate this plant from Gill Banks even though it might take a couple of years.
If you are fond of it then there's plenty in South Ulverston - you can start on the Rope Walk - at the moment.
