Frederica,
Russian Knapweed is epidemic in much of the country, particularly in Mich
where my
cousin, who works for the Dep of Nat Resources, reports that not only have
they NOT
found a control for it (aside from reforestation) they have found that it is
a contact
carcinogen and repeated unprotected handling can have dire consequences.

If you learn anything more, please contact me.
Thanks,
Keith
PS I haven't yet viewed Jerome Osentowsky's video on Natural Controls for
Noxious
Weeds though I am now inspired to do so, ASAP.
