The Canal and River Trust said they were aware of the problem and that Weevils had now been deployed to feed on the foliage in the hope of removing it.A Trust spokesperson said: “The Lancaster canal faces several vegetation issues which we manage using different techniques.

"We use a special weed cutting boat the Truxor regularly to manage the different types of aquatic and marginal vegetation on the canal."The canal is currently covered in some parts, with a small green plant called water fern an invasive non-native species native to the Americans which has unfortunately spread worldwide."Trust ecologists are aware of the problem and will be employing the usual control methods to try and remove it.
