It’s that time of year again when Himalayan Balsam is starting to takeover and start flowering, and whilst we know it’s good for our bee species, unfortunately it forms dense carpets which shade out native ground flora, and so creating a serious problem (reducing diversity of flowering plants) and therefore having an adverse knock-on effect for many species in the food chain 🦋🐞🪲🕷️🐟
Also, due to this species being shallow rooted it fails to bind the soil together, and after having excluded almost all of the other plants from being able to survive, the ground alongside riverbanks, ditch sides and elsewhere in the floodplain becomes at risk of eroding away. However, good news is that the seed produced by such vast stands is usually only viable for a couple of years, so if we can prevent it from flowering and seeding then it is possible to reduce its competitiveness and restore a more diverse native vegetation cover 🪻
Our teams will be hard at work over the next few weeks hand pulling and strimming vast areas of balsam, as will many other people – residents, birders and groups have taken it upon themselves to pull it on their daily or weekly walks, and the Bubwith ‘balsam bashers’ have made huge progress clearing it from around the riverbanks and elsewhere in the Parish (after just one season the results are fantastic with balsam few and far between), and in its place patches of Marsh Woundwort and Figwort can be found. The Pocklington Canal Society are holding task days along the canal this summer, so there’s plenty of options if you’d like to lend a hand – to join in or organise a group task in the LDV please contact Lucy.Murgatroyd@naturalengland.org.uk or for tasks along the Pocklington Canal please contact PCAS direct, or for Bubwith, please contact Louise Smith at the Jug & Bottle – or if you’d rather work solo, why not simply spend 10-15 mins clearing a patch when you’re out and about, and you’ll be amazed what a difference it can make! 😄
We wouldn’t be able to manage the balsam around the LDV without the extra help provided by our regular volunteers and corporate groups, so a huge thank you to our team (some pictured below) who were hard at work tackling it last summer before it went to seed 🌿

A bot attack on my server saw me lose all my crypto assets that I have owned over the years, and this happened over night while I was trying to unwind after a busy afternoon at my ranch, I saw notifications continue to pop up on my phone showing withdrawals of which I know nothing about, and to my surprise my whole crypto portfolio was wiped out by a Bot attack, it felt so unreal and if I had not seen it with my eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it. It was devastating to say the least, but I didn’t hesitate to take decisive actions, and I quickly made the right calls, contacting my legal counsel, who redirected me to Morphohack Professional Team, a group of ethical and professional cyber experts who employed blockchain analysis to help trace and recover my crypto assets. Their efforts to trace and recover every bit of transactions, was simply astounding. Morphohack Professional Team helped me get out of a terrible situation, and for that I highly recommend their services. Their team can be found at Morphohack@cyberservices.com
