The Parish Council engage a contractor to spray Kirkoswald three times a year to reduce the number of weeds. Renwick is sprayed for weeds twice a year. The Parish Council ensure that the contractor is well qualified and experienced to undertake the task. The spray used is a herbicide that does not harm animals or people. It is used diluted to the correct strength and it degrades as soon as it comes into contact with soil. Spraying usually takes place in May, July and September but is very much weather dependent so it is not possible to narrow the actual date further. If anyone would like further details please contact the clerk to the Parish Council or the chair.
