Giant Hogweed on Chimnissing

Attention Chimnissing:

Giant Hogweed has been identified in several locations around the lighthouse area as well as a few areas along the roadsides, I am available to remove or identify the plant if you believe it may be on your property. I would treat this plant in the same manner as poison ivy, stay clear of it and do not touch it (definitely DO NOT BURN it).

Please do not attempt to remove this plant on your own, contact the lands office and ask for Mike I will be happy to assist.
