hausdok Posted August 10 Report Share Posted August 10 I spent a couple of years in the Army as a Squad Leader with the Regimental Aggressor Platoon for the MP School. Many, many hours out at the ranges battling NCO or Officer advanced classes and kudzu. I'm not sure what was worse. I used to drive around base, or the Alabama countryside and it was everywhere. It would cover utility poles, bridges, buildings - whatever was in its path. Hated that stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Kibbel Posted August 15 Report Share Posted August 15 I used to think it was only in the South. It appears occasionally in the mid-Atlantic. I wonder if it's worse than the bamboo problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted August 17 Report Share Posted August 17 It is an invasive species from Japan. It started in the south and it's spreading like crazy, west, north, and east. It will overgrow entire fields and conceal homes and barns. It's worse than bamboo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
