Invasive species are a big problem, but there are some pretty simple solutions, like using a boot brush station that anyone can use, that can help slow and prevent their spread. - Clean boots, boats,and other gear between sites. Seeds and tiny aquatic invasive species can hitchhike in nooks and crannies and bilge water - Avoid sharing landscape plants with other gardeners and source plants from trusted nurseries. - Get familiar with what invasive species are in your area and what ones to keep an eye out for. - Do not move firewood and do not harvest plants, such as roadside weeds, if you do not know what they are. - Do not release exotic pets into the wild.
