Does anyone know anything about Beggar’s ticks, Bidens pilosa? I have this plant that popped up in my garden and through a plant id app. it is identified as beggar’s ticks. I have looked at other sites and it still comes up as beggar’s ticks. Can anyone tell me what it is good for and is it safe? I looked through the forum and couldn’t find anything.
All I know is what I found on the internet:made into a tincture from the root and is used to treat irritations, bleeding of the urinary tract mucosa, pain, and inflammation.
