Growing at up to 20cm a day, floating pennywort starves water plants of light and sucks up the oxygen fish need to breathe. With no fish to eat, wildlife like kingfishers and otters suffer.
This highly invasive species grows from the smallest fragment and a single infestation in one location can cost our team up to £25,000 to treat. Warmer summers mean it spreads even faster, so we need your help to stop it before it clogs up canals and destroys native wildlife.
