The Situation Weeds are a serious problem in Blaine County. Many areas of the county are infested with noxious weeds, especially knapweed.
Control depends on the landowner recognizing the weeds and then initiating control.
Control methods don't always involve herbicide sprays, but include cultural methods such as mechanical control and control by competition. Even biological methods will aid in weed control. Our Response To assist the residents of Blaine County with their weed control problems, the University of Idaho Cooperative Extension System provides weed identification and control recommendations. The county weed control department also offers help. During the months of May through August, an Idaho master gardener is available to identify weeds and discuss control every Monday afternoon.
