Invasive Species
Invasive species are plants, animals, insects, or other organism that are not native to an area and can case harm to the environment or community.
Once established, invasive species can spread quickly and be difficult to control. They can compete with native species, affect natural habitats, and impact parks, waterways, roadsides, and other public spaces.
