The largest. concentration of the weed, stated Phillips, is-in the Nevada» City area along Highway. 49 and in North San Juan. He added that a small amount of Scotch Broom is in the Chicago Park area.

He. said the weed must be. sprayed while it is in the blossom stage or the spray is not effective. He added that the length of time the seeds can germinate makes it hard to control. Several years ago the county tried a form of biological control to‘stop the spreading/of Scotch Broom. Phillips said two types of insects were introduced to the area. One was a small moth that was expected to bore into the twigs of Scotch Broom, thereby stunting the plants’ growth, and the other was‘a small seed pod weavel that was expected to eat the plants’ seeds.
