Notice to Residents and Property Owners Regarding Noxious Weeds 2017 Did you know some weeds can harm livestock, crops and even people? The main purpose of the Weed Control Act is to reduce the impact of these poisonous weeds that might be on your property. Under the Weed Control Act, you are required to destroy all noxious weeds. Be a good neighbour and read Weed Control Act at www.e-laws.gov.on.ca then properly weed by removing and/or destroying all harmful species. Noxious weeds may be destroyed by the following methods: a. pulling or otherwise removing plants from the soil; b. cutting the roots or stalks before the seeds have properly developed; c. cultivating the soil in which the plants are growing; d. treating with a herbicide that destroys the weeds, prevents growth or ripening of seeds. With the exception of Giant Hogweed and Poison Ivy, the Region of Waterloo strongly encourages methods a) through c) to control noxious weeds. Enforcement of the Weed Control Act in the townships of North Dumfries, Wellesley, Wilmot and Woolwich is carried out by Region of Waterloo Area Weed Inspectors. In the cities of Cambridge, Waterloo and Kitchener it is carried out by Municipal Weed Inspectors.
