Heard on radio4 this morning that some research workers working for the
government, have introduced an insect that feeds on JK to two secret
sites in the UK, apparently this insect will spread and will eradicate
JK in the UK. =-O

Suggest you go and read the the BBc news web site.

The insects will not erradicate the weed, only stunt it and control it
somewhat: as in Japan.
Perhaps you misheard, or Radio 4 passed inaccurate burbage .. not for
the first time.

Or maybe just "frighten" it :-) , yes, I probably used the wrong word.
For "eradicate" read :- control, keep in check, influence,
moderate, stunt.
Take your choice.
BTW to be equally pedantic there is only one R in eradicate :-) .
