Spotted in a neighbours yard a few houses over. Is this what I think it is? Worried this will make its way over to my place in a year or two.

It’s knotweed 100%. Rip it all out by hand, dig out the roots
Yes and please don’t dig it out! The sprouts look like it was sprayed, wait and spray it in September and don’t disturb the ground as more will sprout.
yep… I’m so sorry.
It’s good in salads….😊
oh no you’re screwed
It might be worth finding the point of origin to see where it’s spreading from.
Knot weed that doesnt have any leaf, will not make root shoots but if you pull them you might get more knotweed.
If you start picking the leaf of the plant after few year it will die by it self with out root shoots.
You can also eat knotweed.
Is it “demonization” when you are taking about a demon?
Here’s an article about treating knotweed in England.
